The archaeological excavation conducted in 2015 in Trench 1 in area A, at the southeastern footstep of the main Mound A revealed no structural evidence, but a series of accumulation layers probably coming from the collapse and the erosion of the upper part of the mound itself. A preliminary analysis of the pottery assemblage recovered shown the presence of materials dated from the Early Dynastic I period to the Isin-Larsa/Old Babylonian Period, revealing that this part of the site was probably occupied until the first half of the 2nd millennium BC.

Abstract
The archaeological excavation conducted in 2015 in Trench 1 in area A, at the southeastern footstep of the main Mound A revealed no structural evidence, but a series of accumulation layers probably coming from the collapse and the erosion of the upper part of the mound itself. A preliminary analysis of the pottery assemblage recovered shown the presence of materials dated from the Early Dynastic I period to the Isin-Larsa/Old Babylonian Period, revealing that this part of the site was probably occupied until the first half of the 2nd millennium BC.File in questo prodotto:
