Einer der uberraschenden Entdeckungen unserer Ausgrabungen im abbasidischen Kharab Sayyar war die Freilegung mehrerer stuckverzierter Wande in Privathausern und in der Grossen Moschee. Als Motive kommen u.a. unendliche Blatter, die sog. Fischblasen, zweiseitig entwickelte Dreiecke, an deren Spitze sich konzentrische Kreise befinden, steigende Palmettranken, Wellenranken – haufig aus einem funffingrigem Palmettblatt bestehend -, Schuppen- und Netzmuster vor. Die stilistische Einordnung lasst diesen etwas komplexer und entwickelter erscheinen als denjenigen aus Samarra, was moglicherweise auf eine starkere Vermischung der Stile Samarra A und B zuruckgeht. Daher ist auch eine etwas jungere Datierung wahrscheinlich.
