Narrative

At home with Mickey and PA working with ceramics from C5. In this trench there is an interestingly prominent set of Urartian materials in addition to the Achaemenid materials. Perhaps this gives us a useful date for the middle strata at the site somewhere around the 7th-5th centuries BC. Unusual is the very limited presence of medieval materials. If the Sasanian coin serves as a terminus post quem for our upper strata, then there should be medieval materials to go along with the uppermost building level. But there are very few.
