The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 1 February 2021] notes: "La iglesia, que está dedicada a la Santa Cruz, es de estilo románico tardío [...] la pila es románica con sogueado, sencilla," Described in Bilbao (1996) as a baptismal font of the Romanesque period. Described in the Enciclopedia del románico en Castilla y León (2002- ); the large round bowl has bands of rope motif ornamentation; same motif at the rim but in a smaller scale and interrrupted with knots; plain base, without a plinth. [NB: The shape of the basin and the decoration on the basin sides suggests a later date than assigned by the above sources]
