Photo looking northwest at the "Podium Complex" that is situated at the junction where the lower tell (upper half of image) meets the upper tell (from where this picture was taken).

The current excavators seem to believe that this area is part of a Late Bronze Age palace—the majority of which still needs to be excavated.
In the lower right are the basalt steps that were discovered years ago. On the left is the staircase that was discovered in 2018.
