Internal Structure
CT scans showed internal cracks that indicated how pestles broke during grinding activities.
Tool Mark Identification
Density differences revealed carving sequences and tool angles used to shape the pestles.
Cultural Interpretation
The pestles reflected domestic food preparation practices. Internal structure helped reconstruct their use.
Preservation Impact
CT imaging allowed researchers to study pestles without handling them extensively.
