Desk Repair

[24rory]

I just broke my moms desk and I'm now trying to fix it. The thing is though there is a part that I can't identify so I can't replace it in a new piece of wood. All I can see of it is that it is the large top of a screw, but it is used to tighten in what I can only describe as a plug that keeps the two pieces of wood together. Does anyone know what the piece described above is?

Thank You
