Location Context Title Context Description Description (Modern)
Cemetery Y Season 1 catalog cards contain this context location referring to graves discovered along the northwest temenos wall. The graves labeled Y typically fell east/northeast of those labeled X. Originally believed to be a late period cemetery (along with cemeteries X and Z nearby), it was found that the graves lying near the surface here were originally located beneath the floors of a domestic area that had almost completely denuded. Later work in the area revealed portions of Kassite houses. These were published as area YC. (none)
YC House site outside the northwest wall of the Temenos, prolongation of XNCF (none)
