Some of them attribute to precise sites for manufacturing at levels of confidence that fluctuate. The results indicate that Kirman is a preeminent center that is mainly for export production (Mason and Golombek 2003). The historical evidence that relates to production demonstrates that the political centers in one way or another may have some effects on the engagement of ceramic production venues.
