Anthrosol probability map (A) and validation for the Hamoukar (B–E) and Brak region (F and G). (A) Anthrosol map for the east-central part of the basin; dark pixels indicate high probabilities. The large site in the northeastern corner is Tell Leilan (Fig. 1). (B) ASTER image for the Hamoukar region from October 18, 2004 (bands 3N, 2, 1). (C) CORONA image 1108, December 6, 1969. (D) Sites, modern villages, and contemporary land use from field observations, 1999–2001. (E) Anthrosols probability derived from multitemporal ASTER analysis (see Fig. 2). (F) Anthrosols at Tell Brak, the largest mound of the basin (same scale legend as in E). (G) Sherd density recorded in the Tell Brak Suburban Survey.
