Described and illustrated in García Guinea (1979) and (1996). Bilbao (1996) suggests this font may be from the same workshop as the font at Crespos (Burgos prov.), and the fonts at Villaescusa de Ebro [cf. Index entry for San Martin de Elines No. 2], Quintanilla de An, Ruijas and Espinosa de Bricia (Santander prov.) Noted in Huerta Huerta (Enciclopedia del Romanico en Castilla y Leon) as a group of cognate fonts at: "Lomas de Villamediana, Villamediana de Lomas, Linares de Bricia, Crespos, Quintanilla-Colina y Brullés, [...] Villaescusa de Ebro [now in] San Martín de Elines), Quin[t]anilla de An, Revelillas, Ruijas, Espinosa de Bricia, Repudio y Salcedo." Noted and illustrated in Oscar M. Ruiz Pérez' Cantabria Románica [www.cantabriaromanica.com]: "Pila bautismal de la Iglesia de San Esteban de Revelillas, en Valderredible. Magnífica y de grandes dimensiones, al estilo de otras pilas del valle como la de Santa María de Hito o Villaescusa de Ebro."
