Therefore, Arris villages (Dechras) been selected as it represents earliest most significant settlements in Aur?s region. is based on syntactic analysis of several houses dispositions using qualitative quantitative approach Agraph Depthmap sotware data processing. The spatial organization findings outline numerous genotypic similarities few discrepancies. Moreover, outside directly linked interior by yard, representing divergence pole. outdoor rarely accessible roof (Skiffa) enforce domestic life introversion aspect.
