Hadrian Petra

https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-151613

Note.
The Decapolis ("Ten Cities"; Greek: deka, ten; polis, city) was a group of ten cities on the eastern frontier of the Roman Empire in Jordan, Israel and Syria. The ten cities were not an official league or political unit, but they were grouped together because of their language, culture, location, and political status, with each possessing a certain degree of autonomy and self-rule. The Decapolis cities were centers of Greek and Roman culture in a region that was otherwise Semitic (Nabatean, Aramean, and Jewish). With the exception of Damascus, Hippos and Scythopolis, the "Region of the Decapolis" was located in modern-day Jordan.

Petra (GreekΠέτρα, Petra, meaning "stone";

I think there was more connection between the cities than that. It may not have been there originally, but in Flavian times, and possibly earlier under Augustus,  they were administered by a prefect as a sub-province of Syria on a similar basis to Judea.
