In 2014 the remains of a one-chamber pottery kiln were investigated on the high left bank of Ruda River in the old part of Chernivtsi. The southern part of the construction was destroyed by a landslide. Fragments of the several dozen vessels and the coin of Stefan cel Mare 1480-1504 were found in the kiln. Shapes of the nine pots and jugs were restored. The structure of the pottery kiln, the morphology of the pottery and the nu­mismatic find allow to date the complex with the end of the 15th – the beginning of the 16th century.
