Description (summary) 2022-08-21 jW This label collects a series of natural accumulations (some loess and some water deposits) leveled, then compacted by foot traffic, to form the floors for the sacred plaza located to the west of the monumental staircase that was associated with the Mittani period western extension of the entrance to the BA temple. Where the deposit was loess, the surface is hard and the texture when picked is chunky. Where the deposit was from rain runoff, the entire mass is uniformly soft and sandy. [Input: ZG821jW1.j]
