They belong to the same construction phase but also they mark the entrance to the monumental access. To the East of wall f129 there is no structure related to the staircase and therefore this is the main entrance underlined by the oblique stones ds a wall f129 frames the staircase to the east and the two oblique stones are located to its southern end and are bonded with it nf a4 marks the entrance to the staircase. The wall is the eastern boundary of the staircase and the obelisks underline the importance of this place.

Looking in section there are no bricks and further excavating was found no continuation of it, therefore this feature is to label accumulation (the other brickfall lies circa 30 cm deeper) f 24 ar walls f24 and f27 are part of a stone building with North-South orientation. It was excavated in season 2001 (Gebäude XV: P.Pfälzner MDOG 134 2001, p138) and dated to EDII. It is probably structurally and functionally linked to the temple terrace: the structure could be the entrance from the South to the sacral area a 6 A21 is df is G11 f24,f27,q34.1 ds walls f24 and f27 are the southern and eastern walls of a larger stone structure: we have only these walls but is probably a rectangular building. The stones are large and rough. nf this building was probably the southern gate to the temple terrace: it is dated to EDII and the building technique is the same as for the walls of the terrace (revetment wall). The orientation of the building reflects the same orientation as the staircase. The plaza in the 3. millennium was a free space beginning from this point. Probably at the beginning of the second millennium the limits of the plaza were more to the North and this building was anymore used. Another possibility is that is a corner wall and not a building; in this case is the south and east boundary of the plaza nl this building was excavated in season 2001 (Gebäude XV: P.Pfälzner MDOG 134 2001, p138) ^ wall8 >l f24 ds f24 is a stone wall with East-West orientation located in k100 (is a J6 locus, but is located in area C2: see introduction to k100); it consists in one row of large rough stones.
