Low-poly historical accurate reconstruction of a lime kiln used by the romans and throughout the middle ages. It is a oven to heat treat limestone to get quicklime (calcium oxide), which is then combined with water to get slaked lime (calcium hydroxide). Slaked lime mixed with sand and water then forms mortar to build stone walls. Lime kilns where built next to rivers or quarries with lime stone deposits, to treat the stone as close as possible to its occurrence, as the slaked lime is only half the weight of the original stone, which makes transportation of the final product way easier than the raw material.

The file includes:

• Enterable mounted lime kiln in three different states: 1) empty, 2) loaded with river stones and 3) loaded and sealed with clay

Polys/Verts

• kiln mount with entrance and interior chimney (163/181)
• photo scanned river pebbles (88,085/44,503)
• mud cover (40/41)
• inner ceiling, when oven is filled with stones (60/61)
