Kraku Lu Jordan, Archaeological foundry site in Kučevo, Serbia.

The archaeological complex contains multiple sections dedicated to copper and iron processing, with walls dividing specialized metallurgical production areas.

Archaeological investigations between 1971 and 1987 revealed that metallurgical activities at the site occurred from 280 AD until its destruction by fire in 380 AD.

The excavated ceramic findings demonstrate strong local traditions, with 95 percent of pottery produced on-site using regional techniques rather than Roman manufacturing methods.

The archaeological site stands at the meeting point of Brodica and Pek rivers, protected by natural defenses on one side and fortification walls on another.

Archaeologists discovered over 200 metal objects and specialized vessels containing chemical residues that provide evidence of advanced metallurgical processes from the late Roman period.
