I saw a similar three-legged Roman stool/table in this post of volcanic remains 1700 years later https://www.reddit.com/r/ArtefactPorn/comments/1k3cyab/roman_carbonised_wooden_furniture_from/ which reminded me of seeing this in greece which survived – well, an impression of it did – a different volcanic eruption!
Just amazing to see the ghost of a table from so very very long ago. It’s like a fossil table.
