Munoveros / Mannuveros / Muñoveros

Baptismal font listed and illustrated in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/segovia_MUÑOVEROS.pdf] [accessed 21 August 2025]: "pila bautismal de perfil
semiesférico con decoración de abultados gallones sobre lo que se sitúa la embocadura, con decoración incisa de un friso de líneas rectas formando triángulos; se dispone sobre un plinto y cuenta con un tenante compuesto cinco molduras de distinto perfil; de esta manera, de abajo a arriba, se encuentra un achaparrado toro ornado con semibezantes y garras en los ángulos, una marcada escocia, un listoncillo liso, un perfil ligeramente abocelado luciendo una decoración de pequeñas hojas triangulares y un baquetón en la parte superior, decorado con un motivo sogueado." Romanesque baptismal font of a design typical to this area of Castille: a large basin with very prominent rubbed pattern around the sides and underbowl, and decorative patterns around the upper basin side and, at times, on the squat pedestal base. In this case the upper basin side has a band of roundels with six radii, probably meant as stylised floral motifs [one of the sides has been damaged and replaced with a modern insert of the same pattern]; below the large ribs is a rope moulding followed down by a band of saw-tooth, both forming a sort of central ring below which the lower base turns square, though some it is buried under the present flooring. The thick wooden cover is round and plain; date unknown but could be old.
