Overview
Phase 4b3AAH is considered an extension of Phase 4b2AAH, containing accumulations and installments that more clearly indicate an early occupation phase at the site dating back to the Ur III and Isin-Larsa periods. However, no floor was found in this phase, and the distribution of recovered artifacts was irregular. This phase overlaps with both the 4b2AAH and 4b4AAH phases through the ash layer.
