Ancient workshop unearthed in northern Iran

Iranian archeologists have unearthed remains of an ancient workshop during excavations in the historical city of Gaskar in the northern province of Gilan.


The second phase of archeological excavations yielded the 1200-year-old structure along with a collection of tiles from the Islamic era.

Archeologists say the workshop had probably been part of a two-storey building with brick walls and two large rooms.

Remains of a kiln and divisions of the structure’s internal space suggest it had been a public place used as a workshop of some kind.
