Description
This stone carved in the shape of a mallet is a lithic object in a matte black color, slightly porous; carved by abrasion with another or other stones of greater hardness until a three-quarter neck is formed (for its fastening). It is considered a dual-purpose tool, since one of its sides has the shape of an axe, somewhat flattened, and the other has a spherical shape.
