The paper contains a detailed archaeomagnetic study of samples collected in 2012 from six archaeological structures discovered at Apollonia Pontica (42.42°N; 27.70°E) dated quite precisely from an archaeological point of view. These include one big oven for pottery production, three metallurgical ovens numbered as 1, 2, 6 and two burnt structures challenging to identify (supposed eschara remains and small domestic/pottery oven).
