Palmas are paddle-shaped stone objects with trilobed bases and exhibit a much richer subject matter than either hachas or yugos, quite often illustrating brutal scenes of sacrifice...

basalte?
Le basalte étant la pierre utilisée pour les palmettes et comme on ne trouve aucune pierre spécifique à ce nom,je dirais 'basalte'... mais je ne trouve rien pour soutenir cette interprétation...
