Abstract

Renewed investigations in Area B East started at Ebla/Tell Mardikh (Syria) in 2001, where a large quarter of well-preserved houses was identified and partially excavated at the beginning of the Seventies. The fire that affected the city of Ebla, probably besieged by the Hittites, at the end of the MBIIB (c. 1650-1600 BC) caused a thick destruction layer with ashes and burnt bricks from the collapsed walls. A large amount of materials (pottery vessels, objects, organic materials, etc.) was sealed in situ over the floors and in the layers immediately above them. In the papers the archeological evidence related with three domestic units is presented.
