This paper examines the travertines unearthed from these layers, with the aim of identifying and interpreting their varying usages and determining their sourcing, employing a multidisciplinary, geoarchaeological approach. Most of the examples in the mound are large, regularly shaped blocks used as architectural elements. Others were used as stone tools for processes such as grain grinding and grape pressing. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) study of in-situ travertine from a medieval workshop indicates iron was forged here. Frequent use of recycled travertine obtained from the lower layers of the mound is also indicated, such as in the nineteenth century Aleaddin Mosque, rebuilt on the mound with … |
