Windmill milestone (Campo de Criptana, Spain)

Milestone intended to fix the steering stick of one of the Campo de Criptana windmills (Spain). In La Mancha, in order to orient the blades of the windmills to the direction of the dominant wind at each moment, the roof could rotate 360º on the vertical axis of the mill, driven from the outside by means of the steering stick, which is located on the opposite side to the blades. Once the blades were oriented, the steering stick was fixed to one of the twelve stone milestones distributed for it around the windmill. Each of these twelve milestones corresponds to one of the twelve windows located on the upper floor of the mill, which served the miller to determine the exact direction of the wind. 93 photos processed in Reality Capture Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
