Stratigraphy

      During this phase some scattered structures were found on top of a compact layer considered as the ancient tell surface. They should be dated to Middle Assyrian or very Late Mitanni period, when the temple terrace was completely covered and no more visible. These structures include few walls (f374 and f375) a possible small portion of pavement (f218) and other installations (f372) not completely understood. During this phase the occupation was very scattered and not important in terms of dimension.

Typology

No significant pottery or objects were found associated to this phase because the remains are just below the topsoil, which material is clearly not reliable.
