II2 THE ARCHEOLOGICAL EXCAVATIONS IN ANAU. 
Terrace B (figs. 42 and 43).—After starting work in terrace B and removing 
the superficial loose earth, horizontal layers were exposed in the edge of the hill,

which we had reason to 
expect contained unmixed 
finds of the older develop- 
ment periods of the hill. 
To the level of about 
+281 feet the pottery of 
the upper layers of this 
terrace corresponded to 
that of the upper digging 
between + 4o feet and +37 
feet 7 inches and belonged, 
therefore, in groups 3 to 5. 
A three-sided seal of stone 
with figures (a griffin, a

a threshold in situ, composed of several irregular flat stones and a pivotal door-

a house, and in addition, 
the skeleton grave was

North Kurgan. 
The deepening and

progressed several stages, 
and on April 20, at +27 
feet, there occurred two 
skeletons (4 and #, Nos.

well-preserved “‘ Hocker grave’’ (cf. special report by Warner). On the following 
day there came to light in the center of the terrace a peculiar quadrangle construc-
