Location: When the kiln was discovered, it was on the western side of the site, directly on the coastal scarp against the sea. The site no longer exists today.

Period of activity: 6 - mid 7th c. CE, with perhaps with more production occuring in the 7th c.

Typology: LRA1 type B 'sous-modules,' by Pieri's (2005) terminology

Number of kilns: 1

Description of facilities: Geomagnetic surveys and excavation at Zygi-Petrini revealed at least 7 multi-room buildings and a "standard updraught type" kiln structure (Manning et al. 2000). Built of roughly hewn river stones, boulders, and gypsum rocks, the stone components of the wall are fixed together with mortar and lined with mudbrick. The inner kiln chamber is rectangular and connected to a plaster-lined firing chamber. There are open and covered courtyard areas southwest of the kiln that likely operated as working or storage facilities for the kiln.

Local fabric: the excavators distinguished two fabrics in their excavation: 1) "Brown-red with many small dark inclusions, scarce white ones, often with small pieces of clay in the matrix" and 2) "light brown to buff, relatively condensed with various small inclusions (red, white, dark)" (Manning et al. 2000: 251)
