An in-depth study of the Late Minoan IA cross-draft kiln found in excavation at Kommos, Crete. The kiln is of a type popular during the Neopalatial period, and its good state of preservation has allowed the authors to speculate about its original internal layout and use, as well as the roof that covered it. Much of the large quantity of obviously locally produced pottery found in association with the kiln is analyzed in detail, allowing for the first time the study of the shapes, decoration, and technical characteristics of vases known to have been fired in a specific LM IA kiln.Shaw, Joseph W. is the author of 'Lm Ia Ceramic Kiln in South-Central Crete Function and Pottery Production' with ISBN 9780876615300 and ISBN 0876615302.
