At the Casa Cuevas Muserum in Artenaras, western Gran Canaria you will find several old house hold machines on display. Machines that have all been used for the household of the families who lived in caves like this. These machines are located in cave number 2 which are dedicated to agriculture.
A family would use a machine like this to seperate the grains from the corn nob. A much easier way to do it than by hand. There are a lot of corn cobs hanging from the ceiling to dry before there were processed on the machine.
