The layers accumulated over time and contain no use areas or structures. There are some small hardened areas (f18) and some accumulations of stones and sherds (f13, f21) but these appear to be naturally occuring rather than man-made use areas. Some large floating stones are found in this level (^flst)that may be related to late use of the area but it is unclear. I4 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC s122-JPD I12 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC These natural accumulations built up on top of the brickfall sometime after the area of the brickfall was abandoned and exposed, but before the construction of the second apron and other associated stone constructions of J2. O99 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC The natural accumulations can be clearly seen on top of the brickfall in v35. They are uniform and show none of the same red color characteristic of the brickfall. ; J7^ash A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f58 B11 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC A layer of ash at the bottom of k3 that presumably extends southward. It was only recorded in section (see v37). It was not excavated so it can no be dated clearly but it appears to be the same as the ash in J6. I4 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC s161-JPD I10 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC No ceramics were collected from this feature as it was only exposed, not excavated, therefore this strata is assigned based solely on stratigraphy. I12 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC Because this ash is immediately followed by the brickfall it must have happened at nearly the same time. It is possible that the ash comes from fire or destruction that precipitated the brickfall. ; J7^bf A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f12 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f42 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f43 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f44 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f46 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f47 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f49 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f50 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f51 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f52 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f57 B11 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC This specific label encompasses all the brickfall in unit J7. The brickfall is the same as the brickfall 1 and brickfall 2 in J6 that slopes across the trench (k200) from the southeast. It is dated to the Mittani period. It is a very dirty brickfall with chunks of bricks, human skeletal remains (e.g. i3, i5, i6)and some small items (e.g. i4, i2). Toward the top of the brickfall the bricks are more degraded forming a "brickmelt" across the top. I4 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC s160-JPD I12 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC Based on connections with the brickfall in J2 and J6 the brickfall has been dated to the Mid-Mittani using the ceramics and stratigraphy. The J7 brickfall is known to be part of this brickfall and can be dated to the same strata. ; J7^flst A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f4 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f5 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f6 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f25 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f29 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f35 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f36 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f37 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f38 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f39 A2 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC f40 B11 2010-08-11_U811CJC.j cJC Each stone was thought found sitting relatively isolated in the top 30-70cms of J7. They do not appear to form any distinct shape but may be part of a large arrangement of stones across J2 and area C2. They are large individual limestone stones ranging in size from 40-60cms.
