The excavation of site 290 in Leptiminus (Lamta, Tunisia) in 1995 - 1999 uncovered an industrial ceramic compound.  The southern trenches contained a row of five kilns, four of which were fully excavated.  They were set on the hillside in a linear formation, a regional characteristic that was evident at two other sites at the city of Leptiminus.  The area north of the main kiln site held a pottery workshop and hydraulic water-work structures.  To judge from the ceramics, the complex appears to have been in use from the mid first century AD to the mid third.
