| Description (summary) | 2008-09-14 | lR | The earliest Mittani occupation consisting of thick walled mudbrick structures with cobblestone floors that were terraced with the floor from the northern area at elevation 9263, followed by a larger stone courtyard f108 at elevation 9143 then the inside of room a5, with the floor at elevation 9072. At first we initially thought these were all different time periods of use but the courtyard f108 respects wall f84, which is the cross wall for a1 (the northernmost room at the highest elevation) and wall f126 for room a4, and wall f109 for a5. The similarity of the rooms also adds in favor to a contemporary construction of all these rooms with vertical bricks in use, thick walls, stone floors, and the small sizes of the rooms. The pavements inside the rooms were found clean with no pot smashes and no objects directly on the floors (with the exception of an animal jaw sitting on f132 pavement). [Input: S914LR.j] |
