Building archaeology fills gaps of knowledge where written sources and traditions fail. Either because they have been lost, or never existed: "Daily life" of Jewish communities through the times has not been documented in the same detailed manner as official and religious events.

It is a late example of an old tradition of wooden tombs in Phrygia. The walls of the chamber were formerly covered by paintings, large parts of which had survived until the excavation. The chamber is a log construction and part of a building complex with an outer stone wall and a dromos, which was probably vaulted in Hellenistic times ( ). The outer wall and dromos consisted of white lime stone blocks; according to the report of Hasan Ucankus, some parts of the walls were made of rubble stones. The outer walls carried a thick packing of timbers, mud and rubble stone, which transferred the load of the earth above and protected the wooden chamber from climatic influence. The space between this covering structure and the wooden chamber was probably empty or filled with coarse gravel in order to drain off intruding rain water.
