The Temple used to share a wall with the building occupying the Southeast corner of block H2, which is believed to have been the living space for the Priests. These speculations have resulted in the building being named the House of Priests. The alley that runs between the Temple and the House is believed to have supported an upper floor connecting the two buildings, and a barricaded doorway has been found between the two buildings, implying that the residents were affiliated with the Temple[1].
