Excavations in Area G uncovered 19 phases and several sub-phases spanning three millennia, from the Middle Bronze Age I (2000-1800 BCE) to the Early Islamic period (800-1000 CE). Chronological gaps in occupation include the Neo Babylonian (604-550 BCE), Achaemenid (550-330 BCE) and Byzantine (5th-7th century CE) periods, although they are present elsewhere at the site. A general review of the main results for each period is proposed here, including some hints to trends in the Bronze and Iron age pottery assemblages and agro-pastoral strategies in the Middle Euphrates region.

Abstract
Excavations in Area G uncovered 19 phases and several sub-phases spanning three millennia, from the Middle Bronze Age I (2000-1800 BCE) to the Early Islamic period (800-1000 CE). Chronological gaps in occupation include the Neo Babylonian (604-550 BCE), Achaemenid (550-330 BCE) and Byzantine (5th-7th century CE) periods, although they are present elsewhere at the site. A general review of the main results for each period is proposed here, including some hints to trends in the Bronze and Iron age pottery assemblages and agro-pastoral strategies in the Middle Euphrates region.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
