A font here is illustrated in Iglesias Costa (1985): a roughly hemispherical basin [almost cylindrical] decorated with ribs which reach all the way to the upper rim; the pedestal base appears round. The font is also noted and illustrated in Garcia Omedes [http://www.romanicoaragones.com/1-Sobrarbe/99038-Tierrantona.htm] [accessed 12 July 2019]: "pila bautismal gallonada, de época más tardía que el templo original".
