Subject: Lime Kiln Query

Hello,

I worked on an excavation in Maryland that revealed what looks like a
lime kiln, which is believed to be associated with an 18th/19th c.
plantation. While I've found some historical and technical information
on lime kilns, I haven't found many archaeological reports that address
this type of structure. I know that a similar question was asked on this
listserv about a decade ago, and some of the responses have been useful,
but if anyone has more recent info, that would be much appreciated. 
Thanks in advance - 

Megan
