In the latter role of the Second Temple period, especially during Herod's reign, the production was focused on manufacturing cooking vessels. The production installations were found spread across the site, organized into manufacturing units that included kilns, pools for preparing clay, plastered H2O cisterns, ritual baths, too locomote spaces for drying too storing the vessels. Alongside the expanse where the pottery was produced, a small-scale hamlet developed, whose economic scheme was based on pottery production.
