At Lacco-Pedule in the territory of Cetraro (CS), a kiln was identified on a terrace below the road at c. 550 m a.s.l. The rather simple stratigraphy covered the structure unevenly. The kiln for brick/tile production was built into sterile terrain and had a domed vault built of middle sized rectangular bricks (c. 52 x 28 cm), arranged in a semicircle, in steps up to the key-stone where there would usually have been one or two draw holes. The kiln seemed to be built on long axial walls, at least seven, spaced c. 30 cm apart, with vaults and pillars, on an east-west alignment, on which a series of low walls, only one course high and running north-south, rested. Above these was the perforated kiln floor. Inside was the collapse of flat tiles positioned in horizontal courses and between them, in overlying layers, what was presumably the kiln’s final load. The central-plan kiln was vertical, perhaps of the type with a central corridor and arches, with a firing chamber that was at least seven metres wide. The vault had apertures to the outside. The few finds (_pithoi_, fragments of containers and pouring vessels in coarse table ware, a loom-weight, _kalypteres_ _hegemones_) date the structure to the late 4th century B.C., the moment when the Bruttian-Italic community settled in the area was flourishing. Its characteristics and size suggest that the kiln’s production was substantial, certainly larger than necessary for one family and a single residential unit, of which however no trace was found in the vicinity. Rather, this was a kiln attached to a village that was part of the _kata_ _komas_ structure, which can be hypothesised based on the visible settlement evidence.
