Post, House, Wood, Worked

Hollowed out piece of worked wood, possibly a post from a building. Surface is dessicated and very sandy. One end has a flat plane on one side and has been worked to a bevel-like inclined plane on the other, creating a relatively straight edge. A longitudinal groove cuts into the piece, about one-third of the way to the centre.
