The Lime Furnace and Gypsum Furnace in the area of Amaxotos provided lime and gypsum.
The difference between limestone and gypsum lies mainly in their composition, and in the
process of their conversion from the form of stones to lime, with limestone needing a higher
firing temperature and gypsum dissolving more easily in water. The service life of the lime
kiln and the plaster kiln was ten years.
