EZ III

In 1989-1998, several structures were partially uncovered on the EZ III terrace. The best distinguishable structure is a residential building to the north of the terrace, laid out around a central courtyard. The structure was built around the turn of the period and abandoned in the middle 3rd century AD. In the south of the terrace a building was cut, the function of which is still unclear and which was also erected around the turn of the period but abandoned already at the end of the 1st century AD. The publication on the architecture of the excavation site is in progress.
