  1. Yeah, 'batu giling' is one of traditional stone-tool of old malaysian people in their own kitchen. This artistic and old-gadget is similar to 'ulekan'/ 'alu' in java island and sumatra island and a half part of eastern indonesia. No wonder that we all are in the same influence of culture of polinesia which had some several huge stones as rituals and utensils as well.

    So we might call them the "Godfathers of Food Processors".
