In the southeastern sector of the outer yard of the complex, Room b2 was entirely explored. It measured 2.20 m by 3.10 m, with walls 80 cm wide built of stone slabs bonded with mud, and adjoining the western side of Building H3 consisting of parallel rooms arranged in a line. Sherds and animal bones were found in the room. Room b2 was identical to Room b1 situated in the interior of the building. The storage pit discovered in 2014 was explored.
