This is an unique type of large mortar used in Jeju-do.
After hollowing out a log, place a stone inside the log, which has a hole to pound grains.
The word, Nambangae means “wooden mortar” in Jeju-do dialect and it is also called Nambanga.
Since it has a broad edge, a group of people can pound grains together without grains popping out.
