Font Notes:
Described in Bilbao (1996) as a baptismal font of the Romanesque period. Described and partially illustrated in the Enciclopedia del románico en Castilla y León (2002- ); hemispherical basin plain but for a moulding at the upper rim; raised on a base of two levels: the upper level is square and has human heads at 90-degree angles, one with negroid features, another with chinstrap; Bilbao (ibid.) suggests their symbolism for the four rivers of Paradise; the lower base is formed by two thick roll mouldings and has spur-like ornaments at 90-degree angles: two are balls, one is a pilgrim's shell and the last has a spiral shape. The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed March 2023] notes: "Su iglesia está dedicada a San Saturnino, mártir, y es de una nave con cabecera románica [...] El ábside es románico [...] La portada tiene arco de medio punto cegado y convertida en adintelada con dos grandes pilastrones que terminan en impostas de las que parte el breve arco de medio punto, bajo pórtico cerrado [...] La pila, buena, es románica, de copa lisa, con pie cilíndrico con cabezas y base rectangular con conchas."
