Description

A rectangular block of pale stone has been worked into a shallow basin, with a rounded, cone-shaped lump rising from one end of the hollow. It sits on bare, stony soil scattered with pebbles and rubble, and low scrubby plants grow on the slope behind it. The edges are chipped and the surface is pitted and worn.
