Without a picture, it's kinda hard to guess, but the 68000 was a common
chip to use in the 1980s for a VAX peripheral (we did it on the COMBOARD,
DEC did it with the DMB32, etc).
If there are 1488s and 1489s near the BERG connectors, it is probably
a protocol converter of some sort (like a COMBOARD or Simpact board).
Otherwise, if there are any other large chips, they might reveal what
this board did.
