This synthesis page covers what contextual information there is for Arpachiyah. Arpachiyah was excavated before single-context recording and without the use of coordinates so the SiteLot, SiteLotGroup, and ArtefactCoord properties are not used. Instead ArtefactContext is used for specific information, depth when available, and Site Area for the generic trench/level.
| A number | Depot number | Context | Depth | Area | Period | SubPeriod | ArtefactPhase | ArtefactType | PhaseComment | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AP-001 | A. 43 | 1934,0210.336 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From the burnt structure. |
| AP-002 | A. 47 | 1934,0210.337 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Typologically and morphologically ArpMid so assigned there. |
| AP-003 | A. 553 | 1934,0210.338 | Loose in soil | 3.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as 'FN. -3.50m close to tomb.' Difficult to contextualise. F is the Ubaid cemetery but -3.5m is below all except two of the burials(G. 40 and 42) which were cut into Halaf levels. Assuming the artefact was just close to one of the burials and not part of one it shall be assigned to the Halaf levels. |
| AP-004 | A. 551 | 1934,0210.339 | Unknown | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Typed record records T.T. Terrace W. Side, hand-written appears to say T.T. Trenches W. Side but is pretty illegible. There is no record of a terrace in any part of T.T. This artefact is typologically is typically Halaf so has been assumed to come from ArpMid. |
| AP-005 | A. 552 | 1934,0210.340 | Unknown | 1.6 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -1.6m is an ambiguous area. It appears to be a mixture of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. The references to 1.6 F in the report imply a heavy Halaf presence with only limited intrusive Ubaid elements in that area. As such artefact is assumed to be Halaf and ArpMid. |
| AP-006 | A. 581 | 1934,0210.341 | Loose in soil | T.T.7 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.7 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | T.T.7 directly underlies T.T.6 and elements of T.T.6 overlapped T.T.7 so likely very similar in date. |
| AP-007 | A. 39 | 1934,0210.342 | Unknown | 2.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -2.5m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. Due to lack of reference to graves assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-008 | A. 11 | 1934,0210.343 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | Area D is especially ambiguous and was recorded to contain predominately Halaf burials and occupation, but there is very little information about the first 2.5m where there is mentioned to be Uruk pottery but with no discussion. As such given the form and the Halaf parallels it will be assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-009 | A. 5 | 1934,0210.344 | Unknown | 2.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary'. The location is also problematic but is likely between D and F which would suggest the artefact is also ArpMid. |
| AP-010 | A. 41 | 1934,0210.345 | Unknown | T.T.6-7 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6/7 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as T.T. Platform 6-7. S.side. There is no mention of a platform in the reports but the artefact can be assumed to be either immediately below or part of T.T.6. |
| AP-011 | A. 42 | 1934,0210.346 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From T.T. but no other contextual information. Typologically Halaf so assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-012 | A. 892 | 1934,0210.347 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-013 | A. 874 | 1934,0210.348 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-014 | A. 6 | 1934,0210.349 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No known contextual information. Typologically still probably ArpMid. |
| AP-015 | A. 4 | 1934,0210.350 | Surface | 0-1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as: Akropolis (AK), West-Central, Surface. Pre-Al-Ubaid level. AK is probably T.T.5 but there are no clear records of where this is meant to be except the report says 'Area. T.T.5. (A.K.)' so is presumable similar. T.T.5 is a very disturbed level between the abandonment of the Halaf settlement and the Ubaid levels. Mallowan and Rose record it as Pre-Al-Ubaid and typologically it fits so it has been assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-016 | A. 874 | 1934,0210.351 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From the burnt structure. |
| AP-017 | A. 40 | 1934,0210.352 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available but typologically Halaf so ArpMid. |
| AP-018 | A. 14 | 1934,0210.353 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | Pendant | No contextual information available and typologically fragmentary. | |
| AP-019 | A. 896 | 1934,0210.354 | Loose in soil | 3.1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (C.-3.10m. Bottom of tholos) Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary'. Presumable this comes from the bottom of the tholos ossuary, the tholoi are traditionally Halaf so presumable this is as well. |
| AP-020 | A. 867 | 1934,0210.355 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-021 | A. 584 | 1934,0210.356 | Loose in soil | T.T.7 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.7 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | {T.T.6 Under house, outside tholos} Presumable from T.T.7 as T.T.6 does not contain a Tholos. As such ArpMid. |
| AP-022 | A. 881 | 1934,0210.357 | Loose in soil | T.T. 5 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.5 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | T.T.5 is very messy, but morphology of this artefact is unusual but the design typically Halaf. As such ArpMid with some reservations. |
| AP-023 | A. 882 | 1934,0210.358 | Loose in soil | 0-1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | F is the Ubaid cemetery cut into the Halaf. The top-metre lacks any structural material but contains mostly Ubaid pottery making this object likely to be ArpLate. |
| AP-024 | A.? | 1934,0210.359 | Unknown | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | Stamp Seal | No record has been found of this artefact in the small find catalogue. Presumable Arpachiyah but no evidence to be certain. | |
| AP-025 | A. 17 | 1934,0210.360 | Loose in soil | 1.8m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary'. The location is also problematic but is likely between D and F which would suggest the artefact is also ArpMid. |
| AP-026 | A. 887 | 1934,0210.361 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Unknown | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | This artefact is from Gogjeli and the only contextual information is that it was associated with Halaf pottery. This makes contextualisation difficult as the morphology, though not the design, is also very unusual. Have assigned to ArpMid but the certainty of this designation is limited. |
| AP-027 | A. 870 | 1934,0210.362 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Bead | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-028 | A. 873 | 1934,0210.363 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Bead | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-029 | A. 864 | 1934,0210.364 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Bead | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-030 | A. 861 | 1934,0210.365 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Bead | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-031 | A. 860 | 1934,0210.366 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-032 | A. 15 | 1934,0210.367 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | Stamp Seal | No available contextual information. ArpMid assigned due to the similarities with other objects from Arpachiyah. | |
| AP-033 | A. 866 | 1934,0210.368 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From the Burnt Structure. |
| AP-034 | A. 893 | 1934,0210.550 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Bead | No contextual information beyond T.T. available. 6 similar beads were found with the rest of the contextual information suggesting they came from the top metre of F implying an Ubaid date for these artefacts. They have all therefore been assigned as ArpLate. |
| AP-035 | A. 561 | 1934,0210.369 | Loose in soil | 5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (JK.-5.00m.) No contextual information is available about JK except that it contains a grave at -2.75m which is interpreted as Halaf making this artefact presumable Halaf. Assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-036 | A. 36 | 1934,0210.370 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Loose in soil with no contextual information. Morphologically and Stylistically ArpMid so assigned there. |
| AP-037 | A. 566 | 1934,0210.371 | Loose in soil | 1.7 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | The West extension of trench E is also ambiguous but appears at -1.7m to have contained 'bread ovens' of Halaf period levels. No further contextual information is available with no mention of the bread ovens in association with anything artefactual. |
| AP-038 | A. 564 | 1934,0210.372 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Loose in soil with no contextual information. Morphologically and Stylistically ArpMid so assigned there. |
| AP-039 | A. 565 | 1934,0210.373 | Loose in soil | 3 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | The West extension of trench E is also ambiguous but appears at -3m to have contained 'bread ovens' of Halaf period levels. No further contextual information is available with no mention of the bread ovens in association with anything artefactual. A child burial is mentioned at -3m but with no mention of associated amulets (except a flint knife). |
| AP-040 | A. 570 | 1934,0210.374 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | |
| AP-041 | A. 562 | 1934,0210.375 | Loose in soil | 1.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (J.-1.50m.) No information is available about trench J as such SiteArea assigned to Arpachiyah Unknown and stylisticsally assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-042 | A. 30 | 1934,0210.376 | Loose in soil | 0 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | Found on the surface at Trench C, C from 0.7m down is Halaf but is probably Ubaid or later from above. Stylistically and morphologically this artefact is also unusual making any typological positioning difficult. |
| AP-043 | A.? | 1934,0210.377 | Unknown | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | Stamp Seal | No reference to this artefact has been found in the small finds catalogue. Stylistically and morphologically is unusual, might be early but limited reason to have any clue. | |
| AP-044 | A. 28 | 1934,0210.378 | Loose in soil | 0-1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | (AK. Road B. Top metre). A.K. is again assumed to be part of T.T.5 and the level is still very mixed with both Halaf and Ubaid artefacts mixed intogether. ArpMid or ArpLate, the style, material and form are both unusual. |
| AP-045 | A. 34 | 1934,0210.379 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available, design is very unusual as well. Potential parallels from the Terminal Ubaid at Tepe Gawra (see Tobler, 1950: pl. CLIX, 28 & 29.) As such assigned as ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-046 | A. 893 | 1934,0210.549 | Loose in soil | T.T.5 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Bead | No contextual information beyond T.T.5 available. 6 similar beads were found with the rest of the contextual information suggesting they came from the top metre of F implying an Ubaid date for these artefacts. They have all therefore been assigned as ArpLate. |
| AP-047 | A. 1 | B15000 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information beyond 'dump' available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-048 | A. 2 | Unknown | Burial | 2.8m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as '-2.8m Jacob's Kitchen. Perhaps from disturbed burial'. Height matches the description of the disturbed burial in JK but association is not possible to prove, stylistically ArpMid. Context set as burial. |
| AP-049 | A. 3 | 53/441 | Loose in soil | 2.8 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as: Akropolis (AK) -1m Central Side. Pre-Al-Ubaid level. AK is probably T.T.5 but there are no clear records of where this is meant to be except the report says 'Area. T.T.5. (A.K.)' so is presumable similar. T.T.5 is a very disturbed level between the abandonment of the Halaf settlement and the Ubaid levels. Mallowan and Rose record it as Pre-Al-Ubaid and typologically it fits so it has been assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-050 | A. 7 | 53/440 | Loose in soil | 1m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information, form and style suggest ArpMid. |
| AP-051 | A. 8 | B15035 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information, form and style suggest ArpMid. |
| AP-052 | A. 9 | B15046 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | No contextual information, form and style suggest ArpMid. |
| AP-053 | A. 10 | B15025 | Loose in soil | 0-1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as: (AK. W.end. Subsurface, above main road to AK). AK is probably T.T.5 but there are no clear records of where this is meant to be except the report says 'Area. T.T.5. (A.K.)' so is presumable similar. T.T.5 is a very disturbed level between the abandonment of the Halaf settlement and the Ubaid levels. Is stylistically ArpMid |
| AP-054 | A. 12 | B15007 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-055 | A. 13 | B15009 | Loose in soil | 1.2 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -1.2m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. context explicitly mentions below the Ubaid burials so assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-056 | A. 16 | B15008 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-057 | A. 18 | B14999 | Loose in soil | 1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as: (AK. Road. B-1m.). AK is probably T.T.5 but there are no clear records of where this is meant to be except the report says 'Area. T.T.5. (A.K.)' so is presumable similar. T.T.5 is a very disturbed level between the abandonment of the Halaf settlement and the Ubaid levels. Stylistically very typically ArpMid. |
| AP-058 | A. 19 | B14990 | Loose in soil | 3 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Area B makes A look informative, apparently small amount of Ubaid at the top but no traces of it lower down implying a Halaf date for an object 3m down. As such ArpMid. |
| AP-059 | A. 20 | B15021 | Loose in soil | 2.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (JK.-2.50m.) No contextual information is available about JK except that it contains a grave at -2.75m which is interpreted as Halaf making this artefact presumable Halaf. Assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-060 | A. 21 | 53/434 | Loose in soil | 2.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | E -2.5m is in the bread ovens. There Halaf. So probably ArpMid. |
| AP-061 | A. 22 | B15041 | Loose in soil | 3.2 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (C.-3.2m. Outside Tem.chamber.) Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary' with temenos chamber. Presumable this comes from around there. The tholoi, though not tholoi, are Halaf so presumable this is as well. |
| AP-062 | A. 23 | B14995 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as: (Loose in soil AK). AK is probably T.T.5 but there are no clear records of where this is meant to be except the report says 'Area. T.T.5. (A.K.)' so is presumable similar. T.T.5 is a very disturbed level between the abandonment of the Halaf settlement and the Ubaid levels. Stylistically very typically ArpMid. |
| AP-063 | A. 24 | B15047 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary' with temenos chamber. Very hard to assign a period to this one but stylistically Halaf so put in ArpMid |
| AP-064 | A. 25 | B15081 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Bead | Recorded as: (Loose in soil AK. Road B). AK is probably T.T.5 but there are no clear records of where this is meant to be except the report says 'Area. T.T.5. (A.K.)' so is presumable similar. T.T.5 is a very disturbed level between the abandonment of the Halaf settlement and the Ubaid levels. Stylistically difficult, an obsidian disk with strange piercings. Probably a bead, provisionally ArpMid |
| AP-065 | A. 26 | B15093 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-066 | A. 27 | B14968 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-067 | A. 29 | B14972 | Loose in soil | T.T.0-1 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | (T.T.Top.) the top of the tepe is mostly Ubaid. Right at the top however is very messy, stylistically this object is very hard to place but for want of further evidence it will be assigned to ArpLate. |
| AP-068 | A. 31 | 53/442 | Loose in soil | 2 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | The West extension of trench E is also ambiguous but appears at -2m to have contained 'bread ovens' of Halaf period levels. No further contextual information is available with no mention of the bread ovens in association with anything artefactual. |
| AP-069 | A. 32 | B14992 | Loose in soil | 2 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | E -2m is in the bread ovens. There Halaf. So probably ArpMid. |
| AP-070 | A. 33 | 53/368 | Loose in soil | 3.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | (C.Tem.Corner -3.50m.) Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary' with temenos chamber. Presumable this comes from around there. The tholoi, though not tholoi, are Halaf so presumable this is as well. |
| AP-071 | A. 35 | B15018 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-072 | A. 37 | Unknown | Loose in soil | 2.5-3 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | The West extension of trench E is also ambiguous but appears at -2.5-3m to have contained 'bread ovens' of Halaf period levels. No further contextual information is available with no mention of the bread ovens in association with anything artefactual. A child burial is mentioned at -3m but with no mention of associated amulets (except a flint knife). |
| AP-073 | A. 902 | B14994 | Burial | 1.7m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | (Burial J (G58). -1.7m F.) From a Halaf burial later disturbed either by Ubaid burials or Halaf re-use of the material. A pot-sherd was found near the feet containing a variety of artefacts including a celt, an obsidian knife, some barley, some human finger bones and a variety of bone implements. |
| AP-074 | A. 44 | 53/484 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-075 | A. 45 | B15027 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-076 | A. 46 | 53/439 | Loose in soil | 1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -1m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. Due to lack of reference to graves assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-077 | A. 48 | B15013 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (JK. Loose in Soil) No contextual information is available about JK except that it contains a grave at -2.75m which is interpreted as Halaf. Stylistically very Halaf like so assumed to be ArpMid. |
| AP-078 | A. 49 | 53/437 | Loose in soil | 1.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -1.5m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. Due to lack of reference to graves assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-079 | A. 50 | B14997 | Loose in soil | 0.6 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (CD. 0.60m.) Difficult context to decide. CD 0.60m is shallow but stylistically the artefact is Halaf. As such assigned as Halaf. |
| AP-080 | A. 554 | B15003 | Loose in soil | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (T.T.6. House outside tholos) Not quite the burnt structure, but in one of the surrounding structures presumable. |
| AP-081 | A. 555 | B14991 | Loose in soil | 1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | MR is the 'main cemetary' aspect that is otherwise in trench F. As before it has Ubaid graves in a Halaf matrix. Stylistically Halaf so assigned as ArpMid. |
| AP-082 | A. 556 | B14996 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary' with temenos chamber. Very hard to assign a period to this one but stylistically Halaf so put in ArpMid |
| AP-083 | A. 557 | 53/458 | Loose in soil | T.T. 6-7 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6/7 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as T.T. 6-7. These two periods are very close together but exact information is not quite possible. Unsurprisingly. |
| AP-084 | A. 559 | B15001 | Loose in soil | T.T.7 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | T.T.7 immediately underlies T.T.6 so is happily ArpMid. |
| AP-085 | A. 560 | B15014 | Loose in soil | 1.5 m | Arpachiyah H | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (H.-1.50m) No information is available on Area H for 1.5m except that there is pise and hard red clay and maybe a bread oven. There is a grain silo at 2m which is Halaf and there are Halaf sherds from 0.8m so presumable this artefact is ArpMid. |
| AP-086 | A. 563 | B14998 | Loose in soil. F. | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F is again the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. Due to lack of reference to graves assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-087 | A. 567 | B15034 | F.-1.00m. | 1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -1m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. Due to lack of reference to graves assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-088 | A. 568 | 53/459 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-089 | A. 569 | B? | Loose in soil | T.T.1-2 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | (T.T.-0.8m) the top of the tepe is mostly Ubaid. Right at the top however is very messy, stylistically this object is very hard to place but for want of further evidence it will be assigned to ArpLate. |
| AP-090 | A. 571 | B15010 | Loose in soil | 3 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary' with temenos chamber. Presumable ArpMid becuase of the depth but without stylistic information this designation is highly provisional. |
| AP-091 | A. 572 | 53/436 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-092 | A. 573 | B? | Loose in soil | 2.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -2.5m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. No mention of the the graves so assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-093 | A. 574 | B15052 | Loose in soil | T.T.1-2 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | (T.T.0.80m) the top of the tepe is mostly Ubaid. Right at the top however is very messy, stylistically this object is very hard to place but for want of further evidence it will be assigned to ArpLate. |
| AP-094 | A. 575 | 53/473 | T.T.6 | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as T.T. 6. No distinct mention of being from within the Burnt Structure but hopefully contemporaneous. |
| AP-095 | A. 576 | B14989 | Loose in soil | 2.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | MR is the 'main cemetary' aspect that is otherwise in trench F. As before it has Ubaid graves in a Halaf matrix. Stylistically Halaf so assigned as ArpMid. |
| AP-096 | A. 577 | B15012 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-097 | A. 578 | B15029 | Loose in soil | T.T. 6-7 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as T.T. 6-7. These two periods are very close together but exact information is not quite possible. Unsurprisingly. |
| AP-098 | A. 579 | B15028 | Loose in soil | T.T. 6-7 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | Recorded as T.T. 6-7. These two periods are very close together but exact information is not quite possible. Unsurprisingly. |
| AP-099 | A. 580 | B15002 | L | T.T. 5 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | (Loose in soil T.T.5) T.T.5 is very ambiguous and a mixture of the Halaf of T.T.6 and the Ubaid of T.T.4 (there being no apparent transitional). As such objects can go either way. Stylistically this is a very ambiguous artefact. ArpLate assigned for no good reason. |
| AP-100 | A. 582 | B15024 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | No contextual information available. Stylistically probable ArpMid. |
| AP-101 | A. 899 | B15089 | Loose in soil | 0.8 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Bead | F -0.8m is just about high enough to hit the area full of Ubaid pottery. Likely an Ubaid artefact as above the level of the graves. |
| AP-102 | A. 585 | B15023 | Loose in soil | 1.9 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | The West extension of trench E is also ambiguous but appears at -1.9m to have contained 'bread ovens' of Halaf period levels. No further contextual information is available with no mention of the bread ovens in association with anything artefactual. |
| AP-103 | A. 586 | B15033 | Loose in soil | T.T.4 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Pendant | (T.T. 4, Well). The well at Arpachiyah was dug in the Halaf period and then filled in at some ambiguous period during the Ubaid? From Mallowan's context it can be assumed to be post-Halaf. However Von Wickede defines the sealings from this context as Uruk. Stylistically it is ambiguous. Put as ArpLate for safeties sake. |
| AP-104 | A. 587 | Unknown | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-105 | A. 862 | B15004 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-106 | A. 863 | B15005 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-107 | A. 865 | B15006 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-108 | A. 868 | Unknown | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-109 | A. 869 | B14993 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-110 | A. 871 | Unknown | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-111 | A. 872 | B15040 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Pendant | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-112 | A. 876 | B? | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Bead | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-113 | A. 877 | B15045 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Bead | From the Burnt Structure |
| AP-114 | A. 883 | B15019 | Loose in soil | 0.4 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Stamp Seal | F -0.4m is just about high enough to hit the area full of Ubaid pottery. Likely an Ubaid artefact as above the level of the graves. |
| AP-115 | A. 884 | B14983 | Loose in soil | 0.9 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Ubaid | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Bead | F -0.9m is just about high enough to hit the area full of Ubaid pottery. Likely an Ubaid artefact as above the level of the graves. |
| AP-116 | A. 885 | B15030 | Loose in soil | 1.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | (C.-1.50m Dest. Corner.) Trench C is very poorly recorded but contained the stone roads which are Halaf in this section and a 'tholos ossuary' with temenos chamber. No mention of a Dest. Corner. but stylistically clearly ArpMid. |
| AP-117 | A. 886 | B15017 | Loose in soil | 3.50 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | (F.N.-3.50m. From Tell Halaf grave in plundered refuse. G.18.) reputedly from a Halaf burial. The burial (G40) is missing its skull though the teeth remain. No mention is made of the pendant in the description of the grave so hard to actually assign to context or period. Assumed to be ArpMid and Loose in Soil. |
| AP-118 | A. 888 | B15011 | Loose in soil | 3.3 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -3.3m is slightly below most of the Ubaid again burials so is likely to be ArpMid. |
| AP-119 | A. 889 | 53/435 | Loose in soil | 1.25 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Pendant | (DW. -1.250m.) West extension of Trench D. As ever poorly documented with the mention of Ubaid and Uruk pottery intermixed. Form is also very unusual with parallels from Level 12 and 11 (very late Ubaid) from Tepe Gawra (see Tobler (1950) pl: CLXXIII, 41 and 42. As such it is assigned as ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-120 | A. 890 | Unknown | Loose in soil | 0.09m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Bead | Area D is especially ambiguous and was recorded to contain predominately Halaf burials and occupation, but there is very little information about the first 2.5m where there is mentioned to be Uruk and Ubaid pottery but with no discussion. As such given the form and the parallels with A. 893 it shall be assigned to ArpLate |
| AP-121 | A. 891 | B15037 | Loose in soil | 2.225 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | F -2.225 m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. No mention of the the graves so assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-122 | A. 893 | B15020 + B15031 | Loose in soil | 1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Bead | (FE.Top metre. TT5. and FI.00m (Archaic 1).) No contextual information beyond T.T. available. 6 similar beads were found with the rest of the contextual information suggesting they came from the top metre of F implying an Ubaid date for these artefacts. They have all therefore been assigned as ArpLate. |
| AP-123 | A. 894 | 53/438 | Loose in soil | 3.7 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Stamp Seal | F -3.7m is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. No mention of the the graves so assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-124 | A. 895 | B15042 | Loose in soil | 3 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | The West extension of trench E is also ambiguous but appears at -3m to have contained 'bread ovens' of Halaf period levels. No further contextual information is available with no mention of the bread ovens in association with anything artefactual. A child burial is mentioned at -3m but with no mention of associated amulets (except a flint knife). |
| AP-125 | A. 897 | B15049 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpLate | Pendant | (AK. W.C. Tholos stones) presumable again from T.T.5. W.C. is not obviously anything. No images of this pendant exist and the only description is partial. It seems likely it comes from the western part of the top around the area of the stone roads As such assigned as ArpLate. |
| AP-126 | A. 898 | B15038 | Loose in soil | 3.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Pendant | (FN. -3.50m. Next to tomb) is again in the messy area of Ubaid burials cut into Halaf levels. Next to tomb is hard to interpret but a direct association would likely have been mentioned so shall be assumed to be from the Halaf level matrix. |
| AP-127 | A. 893 | 1934,0210.548 | Burnt Structure | T.T.6 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | T.T.6 | ArpMid | Bead | From the burnt structure. |
| AP-128 | A. 601 | B15095 | Loose in soil | T.T.4 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | (T.T. 4, Well). The well at Arpachiyah was dug in the Halaf period and then filled in at some ambiguous period during the Ubaid? From Mallowan's context it can be assumed to be post-Halaf. Von Wickede defines it as Uruk. Stylistically it is much closer to late Ubaid/early Uruk then the Halaf so assumed to be ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-129 | A. 602 | 53/463 | Loose in soil | T.T.4 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | (T.T. 4, Well). The well at Arpachiyah was dug in the Halaf period and then filled in at some ambiguous period during the Ubaid? From Mallowan's context it can be assumed to be post-Halaf. Von Wickede defines it as Uruk. Stylistically it is much closer to late Ubaid/early Uruk then the Halaf so assumed to be ArpVeryLate. |

The well at Arpachiyah was dug in the Halaf period and then filled in at some ambiguous period during the Ubaid? From Mallowan's context it can be assumed to be post-Halaf. Von Wickede defines it as Uruk. Stylistically it is much closer to late Ubaid/early Uruk then the Halaf so assumed to be ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-131 | A. 604 | 1934,0210.387 | Loose in soil | T.T.4 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | (T.T. 4, Well). The well at Arpachiyah was dug in the Halaf period and then filled in at some ambiguous period during the Ubaid? From Mallowan's context it can be assumed to be post-Halaf. Von Wickede defines it as Uruk. Stylistically it is much closer to late Ubaid/early Uruk then the Halaf so assumed to be ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-132 | A. 605 | B15097 | C, Surface | 0 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | C is still difficult, but the surface location, design, and von Wickde all suggest ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-133 | A. 606 | 1934,0210.388 | Surface | 0 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | See von Wickede reference. G is the least recorded of the trenches with a single comment about 2 bowls found at 1.1m. Stylistically Uruk so von Wickede's designation will be followed. |
| AP-134 | A. 607 | B15098 | G, Surface | 0 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | See von Wickede reference. G is the least recorded of the trenches with a single comment about 2 bowls found at 1.1m. Stylistically Uruk so von Wickede's designation will be followed. |
| AP-135 | A. 608 | B15099 | Loose in soil | 0-1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | Recorded as "Top metre of F." Stylistically this impression is very hard to place in either the Halaf or Ubaid and von Wickede assigns it to the Uruk. Due to the difficult nature of the top of F von Wickede will be assumed to be correct. |
| AP-136 | A. 609 | 53/464 | Loose in soil | 0-1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | Recorded as "in loose soil, probably from top metre of F." Stylistically this impression is very hard to place in either the Halaf or Ubaid and von Wickede assigns it to the Uruk. Due to the difficult nature of the top of F von Wickede will be assumed to be correct. |
| AP-137 | A. 610 | 53/469 | Loose in soil | 1.7 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | See von Wickede reference. G is the least recorded of the trenches with a single comment about 2 bowls found at 1.1m. Stylistically Uruk so von Wickede's designation will be followed. |
| AP-138 | A. 611 | B15100 | Loose in soil | 1.7 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | See von Wickede reference. G is the least recorded of the trenches with a single comment about 2 bowls found at 1.1m. Stylistically the inter-twinned snakes are Uruk so von Wickede's designation will be followed. |
| AP-139 | A. 612 | 1934,0210.390 | Loose in soil | 0.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | Trench D is again ambiguous and no mention of the upper levels is provided. Stylistically Uruk, as von Wickede argues, so in ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-140 | A. 613 | B15101 | Loose in soil | 0.5 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | Trench D is again ambiguous and no mention of the upper levels is provided. Stylistically Uruk, as von Wickede argues, so in ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-141 | A. 614A | B15102 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | No contextual information available, assigned as ArpVeryLate following von Wickede. |
| AP-142 | A. 614B | 53/465 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | No contextual information available, assigned as ArpVeryLate following von Wickede. |

| AP-146 | A. 615D | 53/466 | Loose in soil | 2 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Sealings | The West extension of trench E is also ambiguous but appears at -2m to have contained 'bread ovens' of Halaf period levels. No further contextual information is available with no mention of the bread ovens in association with anything artefactual. |
| AP-147 | A. 615E | 53/466 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Sealings | (T.T. Terraces) The only other artefact with Terrace in the context is AP-004 a typically Halaf pendant seal. As such this artefact is also assigned to ArpMid. |
| AP-148 | A. 615F | 1934,0210.380 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Sealings | No contextual information available, assigned as ArpMid following von Wickede. |
| AP-149 | A. 616 | B15104 | Loose in soil | T.T.2 | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | T.T.2 is towards the top of the mound and argueable happily Ubaid. Von Wickede again defines the sealing as Uruk however and his judgement is again followed. |
| AP-150 | A. 617 | B15105 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Sealings | From T.T. but loose in soil. Artefact is in the Baghdad museum and the picture in Mallowan and Rose is imperfect. Stylistically ArpMid and assigned as such by von Wicked. |
| AP-151 | A. 618 | 1934,0210.381 | Loose in soil | T.T 3m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Halaf | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpMid | Sealings | (T.T., -3m, from pit by stones) 3m down from the top of the tell places this artefact probably in T.T.5 or 6. As such based on its Halaf morphology it will be assigned to ArpMid. |

| AP-191 | A. 1213 | 53/445 | Loose in soil | 1.4 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | Context in A -1.4 comes from von Wickede and it is again difficult to know exactly where these contexts came from. The reports suggest an Ubaid date and von Wickede a Uruk date but the notes from area A are very partial and offer no real suggestion of chronology. As such will follow von Wickede. |
| AP-192 | A. 1214 | 53/492 | Surface | 0 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | T.T. Surface is a problematic area argued as Ubaid by Mallowan but containing considerable amounts of Uruk pottery. This sealing was assigned by Wickede, see references, as dating to the late Uruk where it has stylistic parallels. It has been taken as ArpVeryLate. |
| AP-193 | A. 1215 | 53/1324 | Loose in soil | 1 m | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | Trench C-D is the junction between C and D. This places it close to where an ambiguous pot was recorded possible of Ubaid or Halaf type (1.3m). However this context comes from von Wickede who also interprets the artefact as Uruk. The design is very unclear and without more convincing contextual information the designation ArpVeryLate will be given. |

In this case 2m in Trench G. G is the least recorded of the trenches with a single comment about 2 bowls found at 1.1m. Stylistically the inter-twinned snakes are Uruk so von Wickede's designation will be followed. |

| AP-198 | A. 1220 | 53/1324 | Loose in soil | Unknown | Arpachiyah Site Areas | Uruk | Unknown (Arpachiyah) | ArpVeryLate | Sealings | No contextual information available, assigned as ArpVeryLate following von Wickede. |
