Hi Luc
It could be possible its a niche.
Why would they carve the straps for the bag, its handle up top and the nail its hanging off of? That would be quite the inset into that beam, thoroughly weakening it. Zoom in to see the details

I see it the other way - as an alcove dug into the beam, rather than a case hanging from it. Perhaps the 'A' shape and the placement of the other octant next to it suggest that it is the storage space for the octant on the floor? Luc
