Scene back from Hunting: the animals (a wild boar and two hinds) is crammed into a heavy two-wheeled cart, the plaustrum, pulled by two oxen. Three hunters and two dogs accompany the cart. This type of cart was used for heavy loads, mainly in the countryside for work in the fields, but also in town to bring skins, boards, … It could even be covered and transport people. The slab was reused in the 19th century, the back was used as an epitaph for the tomb of a nun who died in 1803.
