Described in Bilbao (1996), who suggests the font at Neila as the work of the same master. Described in Valle Barreda (2009) who adds also the font of Ledesma de la Cogolla, in La Rioja, as a cognate, and suggests a date ca. 1200 for it. Listed and illustrated in the Enciclopedia del romanico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/burgos_HACINAS.pdf] [accessed 21 March 2023]: "La misma cronología [una época seguramente muy avanzada del siglo XII o primeros años del XIII] podemos adjudicar a la pila bautismal situada a los pies de la nave central. Su copa, de 105 cm de diámetro, se decora con un bocel en la embocadura, bajo el que corre la recurrente banda ornada con un zarcillo, aquí grueso y del que brotan carnosas hojas nervadas. La zona inferior, como en las de Neila (de las que ésta parece un remedo) o la riojana de Ledesma de la Cogolla, recibe hojitas lanceoladas de nervio central, imbricadas a modo de plumaje o escamas. Se alza sobre basamento deperfil ático con garras y plinto." The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 21 March 2023] notes: "Su iglesia, dedicada a San Pedro, Apóstol […] es renacentista, con restos góticos […] La pila es románica con decoración vegetal en la copa y base cuadrada con piñas." Baptismal font of the Romanesque period; the cylindrical basin is ornamented with a vine, below which are rows of leaves arranged in scalloped fashion, the whole resembling a reticulated pattern; on a short round-to-square pedestal base; the lower base is ornamented with claw motifs and two prominent roll mouldings. No cover present.
