A roof-tile kiln which is believed to date back to between the 17th and 18th century has been discovered at the Dong Co temple relics site in Tu Liem district, Hanoi.

This was announced on January 17 by the Vietnam History Museum and the Steering Committee of the 1000th Thang Long-Hanoi Anniversary.

At the excavation site, archaeologists also found a blue glass necklace and pottery dated back to the Ly and Tran dynasties as well as many pieces of ceramic objects such as cylinder cans, pots and jars.

The ruin of the unique architectural kiln whose material is used in the Le dynasty is expected to be displayed at the Hanoi Museum.

The Dong Co temple in Nguyen Xa village, Minh Khai commune, Tu Liem district is one of the three relics where the Dong Co genie is worshiped. The two others are in central Thanh Hoa province and Buoi ward in Tay Ho district, Hanoi. In the legend, the Dong Co genie warned Ly Kings in dreams and helped them to defeat Chiem Thanh invaders.
