| Popis | Tell Arbid Abyad is located about 12 km east of the famous Halafi an site of Chagar Bazar in northeast Syria. It is a small mound, approximately 2 m high covering about 0.5 ha. Owing to intensive agricultural activities and erosion it is almost indistinguishable from the surrounding landscape. The Czech archaeological project at Tell Arbid Abyad is joined to the Syrian-Polish Archaeological Expedition to Tell Arbid. The investigations of Tell Arbid Abyad yielded architectural remains, pottery, stone tools, sealing fragments, tokens and other objects. On the basis of pottery and radiocarbon dating, the site was settled during the Transitional (Proto-Halaf period) and Early Halaf periods. This paper discusses the fi rst results obtained during survey and fi eld work in 2005-2007. |
