In a private house in dE9V above the ruined gate to the inner town wall, probably House 1 or just nearby, excavators discovered an archive of some 15 clay tablets. The majority of datings are from 707 to 681 BC, except for one dating: postcanonical 639* BC. The archive includes multiple documents concerning loans, as well as a letter and a purchase document.
