Stratigraphy
| Phase 2m (s860) is immediately below the features in phase 3m. There are no intermediate structures or accumulations. We assume that during this entire interval the temple mound was sacred, not used, and kept clean of debris from higher in the mound. This phase covers the preparation for and construction of a Late Chalcolithic glacis f368. Existing structures were cut back and used as fill to prepare a sloping surface. |
