Description The settlement of Level 12 extended over a larger area but much of it must have been destroyed by the building activities of the later phases and by floods. Parts of a large house with stone foundations 1,1 m thick have been exposed. The dimensions are 8,5 x 5,3 m. Originally the building was one-roomed, but a second room of semicular shape was added onto the eastern side of the house in a later phase. Appended to the southern end of the first building is a third rectangular structure which has been poorly preserved.
