Introduction

Phases are the intermediate unit of periodization between strata and horizons, but they are the broadest unit from the opint of view of stratigraphy. Horizons, on the other hand, are closely related to integrative analysis and are, accordingly, treated separately.

The current phase and strata sequence is JPB.

This section provides an overview of the overall phase sequence of the Plaza. The phase sequence of each individual excavation unit is presented in its respective UGR book:

Western Plaza: J5, J1

Eastern Plaza: J2, J6, J4, J7

Central Plaza: J3
