This object shows a rounded surface and a flat surface. One of the extremities is rounded whereas the other has a  sharp edge along its largest width. The flat surface bears the stone's wear marks as a result of contact during grinding or smoothing actions. On the sharp edge of the object, several percussion marks can be seen, thus suggesting the possible use of the pestle as an axe.

Cet objet présente une face bombée et une face plane. Une extrémité est arrondie, l'autre présente un tranchant sur la plus grande largeur. La face aplatie présente une usure de la pierre due à un contact pour broyer ou lisser. Sur le tranchant de l'objet, nous pouvons observer quelques coups de percussion permettant de supposer que le broyeur fut aussi parfois utilisé comme hache.
