Equiza

Described and illustrated in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?-). Described in Domeño (1992); Romanesque baptismal font; hemispheric basin with a combination of vertical and horizontal mouldings and ball motif often found in Navarrese fonts: upper roll moulding surmounted with row of balls; lower row of balls separated with the vertical mouldings [NB: as several other fonts in Navarra, the combination of vertical and horizantal mouldings are designed forming sketchy human figures with linked arms that surround the basin; cf. Index entries for Locking (Somerset, England) and Skodborg (Ribe amt, Jutland, Denmark), for instance, for other Romanesque fonts with fully developed figures in this pose]. The base is a truncated cone with ball motif on the lower part and a roll moulding on the upper. The Enciclopedia del románico en Navarra (2008) notes a number of Romanesque basins of similar shape in Adoain, Aristu, Elcoaz, Jacoisti, Ayechu, Ongoz. Irurozqui, Arangozqui and Zabalza, in the same valley, and Azparren, Equiza, Uli Alto, Meoz and Igal in nearby areas. Noted in Plazaola Artola (2008?) as Romanesque.
