Fragment GT ST70571, discovered in 2023, probably formed part of a circular medallion. The fragment preserves a double row of pearls, approximately 1.5 cm in diameter, enclosed between two borders of different widths, the outer measuring about 2 cm and the inner about 1 cm. Within the inner border is an element that was initially interpreted, partly on the basis of comparison with a fragment from the nearby palace complex of Hawsh Kurw, as a possible separator of uncertain function. However, discoveries made during the 2024 excavation season, have led to a reassessment of this interpretation. These elements are now understood as the remains of radial motifs composed of single and double lines, probably belonging to circular medallions. The motif is most likely vegetal in character, although a solar interpretation cannot yet be entirely excluded. It is also plausible that the centre of the composition originally contained a figural image, as suggested by broadly comparable, though not exact, parallels from Barz Qawaleh and Jiljilak.
