No. 1b Baker's Square

Context Title: No. 1b Baker's Square     
Context Name (Publication): No. 1b Baker's Square     
Context Name (Excavation): House XVIII     
Context Description: North of 1 Baker's square     
Context Description: The approach to the house, which lay on the edge of the area excavated by us, was not found, but there was a narrow alley leading to the front door. The house, built fairly early in the Larsa period, was during that period completely re-modelled and turned into a factory or workshop. At this time the floor was raised by about 1.00 m., and the stumps of the old walls were left below the new floor level and new walls were built with shallow foundations or carried along the old lines with different material, with the result that the alterations could be followed by us more or less in detail.1
