Font Notes:
Described in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990? ): holy-water stoup of the 16th century; the hemispherical basin is decorated with ribbed pattern [NB: the Enciclopedia del románico en Navarra (2008) notes and illustrates a former capital re-used as stoup on the left side of the entrance; it is probably not the same one mentioned in the CMN [cf. supra]; it is square at the top and tapering rfound on the body, with a fleuron or decorated ball under each ungle of the upper part; the lower end is moulded but gamaged. The whole piece is quite worn and the source suggests no date for it].
