C ... prefer 'the site of a possible workskop' to 'what might have been a workshop' and prefer 'and' instead of 'including' because fragments are not intact statues

I vote for C.

A: '...where were produced...' doesn't make sense
B: I can't articulate it but '...at what might have been a workshop' seems wrong. Perhaps in passive voice?
C: I also prefer 'at' with 'the site of'. Also uses 'and' instead of 'including'.
D: uses 'including' instead of 'and'
E: same as D.

Picking C
The call was between C and D.
' and ' is better than ' including ' as pointed out by gmatmba.

we need 'the site' to follow after 'at' --> A,B are out

D,E --> 'including' suggests the intact figurines are part of the fragments, which doesn't make sense

C is the best choice. By using 'and', it seperates the figurines from the fragments.
