Investigations were continued at the farmstead in which ridges were discovered in 1971. The extent of the enclosing walls was determined by probing and by uncovering them at strategic points; similar investigation to determine the extent, morphology and layout of the ridges was begun. Soil and pollen investigation were also carried out. Wheat pollens were recovered from one of the ridges.
