Huts and charcoal furnaces
First of all the hut was built - a simple, circular construction with dry-stone walls and a conical roof with a wooden frame covered in reeds. Afterwards work began on the charcoal furnace itself: a circular, cobbled surface was prepared, and smaller stones, dried red earth and chopped pine or holm-oak wood were laid out on it. When the charcoal burning pit had acquired a conical shape, it was covered with green branches and a fine layer of earth.
