Sketch of a stone quern fragment

Sketch drawings like this one of a stone quern, are drawn for many stone finds and then archived. This shows a fragment of a rotary quern, the grindstone of a rotary hand mill used to make flour from grain.

You can see sketches of other finds that were made on the site, see a photograph of another fragment of quernstone, or discover what this rotary quern might have looked like.
