Stratigraphy

Phase 3p (Stratum 630) encompasses the latest Early Dynastic Period strata in this part of the BA temple mound. The components include accumulations containing late Early Dynastic ceramics which cover the EDIII baqaya escarpment, ^esc2, as well as a number of floating stones. Accumulation, f169, is an example. Although these accumulations mark the end of the EDIII activities on this part of the temple mound, no other deposits occur until the Mittani period, almost 1,000 years later.
