Location: Unknown, but hypothesized to be on the "slopes of the acropolis" (Empereur and Picon 1986: 242)

Period of activity: late 6th - early 7th c. CE 

Typology: LRA1 Type B, the smaller Type B 'sub-module' (Pieri 2005), and the local Type C (ibid., Empereur 2018: 183-185).

Number of kilns: Unknown

Description of facilities: No kiln architecture has yet been found, and the identification of Amathus as an amphora workshop is based on the large number of amphora wasters found there.

Local fabric: The local clay can vary from grey to green to beige, with black inclusions visible to the naked eye. Macroscopic fabric observations, while useful, should not be used as strong evidence to specifically correlate LRA1s of unknown origin with Amathus, as the fabric is nearly identical to that of Zygi-Petrini and potentially another unknown workshop (Gillett 2023). While petrography cannot consistently distinguish between the products of Amathus and Zygi, it can separate their products from the other 15 LRA1 workshops (see the petrofabric here).
