Icelandic A - 10/08 - VIDEO
I am getting a bit behind on publishing some of the video materials that have been recorded over the last year. This shorter clip explains the smelt under process on Oct 8, 2007. The smelter has a clay slab black construction, with stone slabs making up the front (exposed portion).
This is the start of the currently ongoing series that is leading up to a full scale reconstruction of an Icelandic pattern smelter based on Kevin Smith's excavations at Hals.
