locus k21 was to a great extent excavated in MZ6 as part of the step-trench. We expanded it slightly to the west to follow the line of a very large (4.5m wide) mudbrick wall, a25, having components, pise foundation, f273, mudbrick top, f205, and mudbrick retaining wall, f208. These components were at the lowest level where we clearly found Khabur architecture. At the moment we presume that the large pit, a29, into which the forms for pise wall, f225 were cut, is the earliest component in Phase 5 architecture. The pise wall extends south into k11 and comes later, with the platform last. A group of large, flat stones, f204, were found in the middle of the southern edge and were presumably part of a working surface, perhaps associated with the pise wall/foundation, f225.
