The structure in the middle seems to be an olive or wine-press. The cuphole is on the upper left.

I thought wine presses had little channels to "run off" the liquid into containers? These don't seem to be present here. How would the liqiud have been removed? Removing by using a ladle or cup would seem a bit laborious!
