The main occpation phase of the site is of the Late Neolithic period. The presence of five distinct building levels belonging to this horizon has been noted; these counting from top to bottom have been denominated as Level 1 to Level 5. These five building levels present a homogenous pattern in terms of both architecture and small finds.Three radiocarbon dates have so far been obtained, placing this horizon in the time span 6100-5950 cal.BC. This seems to accord well with te results of our comparisons based on pottery typology with Late Neolithic sites of Northern Syria, implying that the five Late Neolithic levels at Hakemi Use correspond to the so-called "Transitional" period between the Pre-Halaf and the Early Halaf, also known as the "Proto-Halaf" stage.
