‘Burning the Bones of the Earth’ was initiated in November 2021 and concluded two years later, following extensive field research in several locations of Epirus in NW Greece and in regions of S. Albania. Its objective was to trace and document the traditional craftsmanship of wood-fired, flare-type lime kilns on both sides of the border; to explore the knowledge, practice, and social dimensions regarding the lime kiln technology and the ways it evolved in the two neighbouring countries. Full documentation of the project was uploaded at the British Museum’s Digital Resources Website on November 2025 and is now fully accessible to the community. In this resource you can find the documentation guide (downloadable file) and the full programmes website:
