This link should show part 1 as well. Note the lava rocks used for insulating the base. In Guatemala we used something we called "puma," but I think that's how you say mountain lion in Spanish. Anyway, the material was volcanic in origin.

Here's a little bit of commentary from the person who built the oven. Breadnerd.
