Description
Possible end of a stone plough. It has a flat, slightly rounded body, with a tip at one end and at the other end a socket to fasten it probably to a wooden plough. This object was found at the site of the auditorium, which consisted of a cave used as collective burial space in the Bronze Age. The site was found during farming work in the early twentieth century and was documented by the scholar Eduard Camps Cava.
