Tell Arbid. Adam Mickiewicz University excavations in Sector P (spring season of 2010)

Summary/Abstract: The Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań three-year excavation project at Tell Arbid, aimed at extensive exploration of post-Akkadian remains, started in 2008, based on a cooperation agreement with the PCMA University of Warsaw. A three-week reconnaissance in 2008 was followed by regular excavations in May–June 2009. During the last field season the Project completed the exploration of identified structures of the post-Akkadian period, emphasizing the northern and eastern parts of the sector. Most of the baulks between the explored squares were now removed. Digging was carried out also in House I of the Middle Bronze period (its late phase had been cleared by the University of Warsaw mission in 1998–2001), and in the Northern Cemetery of the same period, identified in 2008. Documentation of the finds was completed during a follow-up study season, which also included laboratory analyses of various groups of finds.
