Context Description: | Central Court1 |
Context Description: | What may then have been the front door of No. 1 opened directly into Room 1, the courtyard of the house; it was brick-paved with a central drain and the walls showed eleven courses of burnt brick with mud brick above. On a secondary floor level was found the cylinder seal U.16802; under the original pavement was the corbel-vaulted tomb LG/41 and an infant burial LG/42. Two rooms on the NW side of the court were not excavated by us as they lay under spoil-heaps whose removal would have entailed a cost out of proportion to any probable results, so only their doors were cleared.2 |
