Tell Halif, Field IV, Stratum III, Locus G6006. This Pillar Figurine was found in debris G6006 of Stratum III at Tell Halif.

Locus G6006 is a soil layer in Pit G6008, consisting of loose brown mostly silted soil, up to 50% cobble and boulder sized stones, and 2% large animal bones. Located between 38 cm. and 2.6 m. from the North balk and between 1.05 m. and 2.87 m. from the West balk at top level 481.37 m. below Debris G6003 to bottom level 479.65 m. above Debris G6012.

This material appears to have been incidental fill (some midden material) within Silo G6008, perhaps including a partial collapse of Silo G6008 itself.
