These consist mainly of three casting pits sated to the 2nd - 3rd Century AD and located in an architectural complex that probably had a religious character and to which a bath was associated. The careful examination of all technical ceramics and copper base alloy remains and the analyses of a representative sample group helped understanding how these pits worked. the casting activity took place during the construction of the complex to furnish it with large vessels and monumental doorframe fittings. Furthermore, the evidence revealed crucial steps of the manufacturing process of large bronzes.
