Roman Kilns of El Rinconcillo, Algeciras

The Roman kilns of El Rinconcillo were Roman kilns located in the Spanish city of Algeciras [1]. The kilns were discovered in 1966 by archaeologist Manuel Sotomayor, just 300 meters from the Playa de El Rinconcillo [1]. The archaeological site consists of two furnaces attached together to form a single unit [1]. The walls are made of ceramic and mud bricks, and the central vaults are supported by a central column and eight arches lining the walls with adobe structures including narrow holes to allow air to circulate [1].
