The capture of Aqaba.... one century ago!
Now this is a very rare picture!
Prince Abdullah (who later became King Abdullah the First) with Winston Churchill, Secretary of State for the British colonies, at the Jerusalem Conference, March 1921; the photo shows Mrs Churchill, Sir Herbert Samuel, the High Commissioner of Palestine, Mrs. Samuel, General Ghaleb Pasha Sha'alan, Colonel Fu'ad Sleem, and Colonel Aref Al-Hassan.
You could identify King Abdullah with his Hattah and Churchill with his eyes!
The only train in Jordan!

My guess would be that picture is of downtown Amman's theater. This is based mostly on the perspective it's taken from-- Jerash has a hill across the street on the "modern portion" of town, but I don't think it's as close or as tall as Jabal al-qala' in Amman
