Sukhothai - Ceramic Kilns

 
The remnants of ceramic kilns are interesting; excavations has so far brought to light 49 of them (a model exists in the Ramkhamhaeng Museum). The ceramic and tile production began here around 1300 when King Ramkhamhaeng brought several hundred potters from China, and it lasted until the middle of the 15th c. when wars interrupted production.
