Selection Criteria

Use

These extramural surfaces were probably used by residents of the surrounding architectural blocks during passage through the associated doorway or gap in the site-enclosing wall; few openings were exposed through this enclosing wall during excavations at the site.

Abandonment

Abandoned when the surrounding architectural blocks were abandoned, or perhaps when the village was abandoned.

Postabandonment Process

Upper portions of the site-enclosing wall collapsed; sediment accumulated naturally.
