![]() | LG/76 | AHG/170 | Chapel. Grave lay S. of the vaulted tomb LG/80. Analysis indicates that the graves in this structure, including LG/76, LG/77, LG /78, LG/80, LG/80.5, and LG/80.6, cannot be linked to a specific occupational phase; nevertheless, all of these graves appear to be associated with a LP occupation (note that the published directions are probably incorrect); location of LG/76 is known. | (none) |
![]() | LG/33 | AHG/170 | Analysis of available sources indicates that this structure possesses a two-phase LP occupational sequence, "early" and "late"; this grave may be associated with the "early" phase. | (none) |
