2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Description (summary) 2006-08-31 vVE After cleaning the face of the top of the revetment wall it became clear that some of these boulders are not resting directly on the other stones of the revetment wall, but were instead resting on deposits. This proves the hypothesis that the top of the revetment wall was a younger addition. See v551b and v551c. [Input: Q831VE.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Argument 2006-08-31 vVE Both in k1 and k106 there is the association of an ashy layer (f576 and f577) with collapsed stones (f575, f579, f585 and f584, f586, f587, f588 and f589). This association could indicate a deliberate disturbance of the top of the revetment wall (that had remained visible). If I were to follow this line of reasoning I would suggest that such a disturbance must have been caused by outsiders. This would also explain why the inhabitants of Urkesh at then felt the need to recreate the top of the revetment wall by adding another line of stones. [Input: Q831VE.j]

Notes on time sequencing 2006-09-04 vVE The baqaya f581 and the mudbrick pavement, f582, I assign to phase 1 based on the assumption that there never was any major rebuilding of the baqaya-glacis and it therefore was phase 1 like the revetment wall f569. The mudbrick pavement might be slightly younger than the baqaya or is contemporary and the piece that was foudn is actually the border of a pavement that ran parallel to the stairs up to the temple.
