Description/Count
Description 2009-9-14cJC So-called 'curtain' walls in front of the apron built during the brickfall. They were built to screen off certain areas, particularly after the area of the plaza began to fill in. The two features are each separate lines of stones that are placed one on top of each other with a slight layer of fill between them. The wall was built during the time of the brickfall and presumably the first level was covered and so the second layer was added.

Stratigraphic reasons 2009-9-14cJC This wall was constructed during the brickfall, which is securely dated to the Middle Mittani. The period of use during the brickfall, including the construction of the curtain walls was assigned to it separate strata, s159 s159J2A based on the supposition that it was a distinct event that occured during the brickfall.
