Accumulations
More than 5 m of accumulations covered the area. These accumulations are of different type: the upper 2 m are windblown soil ^a1 with no particular interruption of use areas or structures.
A second type of accumulation is ^a2 and ^ab2 are soil that gathered in all the Plaza during a small period of time, when the Plaza was used from people, but also around the Plaza were built structures that allowed a faster grow of the soil. Probably the Plaza was not kept clean so that whithin a very short time (during the Mittani period) the level of the Plaza grew rapidily. The accumulations during this period are interrupted by floors and few installations.
During the Third Millennium the Plaza was kept cleaner. During this period there are thinner accumulations that covered floors, which compacted by the continous walking by of people.
