Described and illustrated in Antonio García Omedes' www.romanicoaragones.com : a former figured capital holowed out and recycled as holy-water stoup; the capital has an orant figure in the front side, centre, and four rampants lions, one at each corner. A drain (?) hole has been drilled between the orant's hands [cf. entry for Asieso No. 1 for an interesting baptismal font in this church]
