Stratigraphy

     Phase 2i encompasses two strata (s864 and s866) that include the construction and use of a very large Late Chalcolithic structure (a25).
   Stratum 866 comprises the construction of the building a25. There is a brick foundation f363 and a brick wall f348. As we only have excavated the SW corner of the structure we do not know the extent or the use. However the thickness of the wall indicates it was large and important.
   Stratum 864 comprises the use of the structure. A series of floors and their accumulations have been excavated.
