“…The two best-known cities of northeastern Syria, Tell Brak and Tell Hamoukar, have been partly identified as such through site survey. Structured surface collections of both sites used the same methodology of grids 100 m per side, within which squares of 10 x 10 m were intensively collected (Ur 2002b(Ur , 2010bUr et al 2011). Based on less structured survey and excavations, additional LC2-3 urban settlements include Tell al-Hawa, Grai Resh, and, possibly, Nineveh, Tell Leilan, and Tell Mozan.…”
