Yoji is a kiln site for baking pottery, tiles, and earthen vessels. As the kiln baked the earthen vessels and tiles of the Baekje Era, it was found during the road construction of the Buyeo City in May of 1941. The kiln was found in a buried condition; thus, although it isn't clear, its size is assumed to be 1.3m wide and 90cm long. Only 3cm in the lower part of the chimney remains, but the fuel hole cannot be found. After the pavement was completed, the front part of the kiln was cut off, facing a cliff, so it was protected with concrete chamber. Pieces of pottery or items thrown from the kiln are not found around this area, which is surrounded with pine forest, but many pieces of pottery and tiles were scattered in an arable land over the ridge. Although only a part of the kiln remains at present, it has high value being the only remaining kiln site of pottery and tiles remaining in Buyeo-eup.
