Hypothesis: Sha-ar Hagolan's street system and housing compound layout reflects a hierarchical social system with some members and/or lineages of the community having greater status and power than others. Question: What are the logical predictions of this hypothesis? If you were able to go dig some more at Sha-ar Hagolan, what material evidence do you predict you would find (assuming your hypothesis was true)? Where you would dig, what would you look for, how would you go about supporting the hypothesis?
