Church Notes: "Parece ser en todo caso que bajo el topónimo Humada se encuadraban unos cuantos barrios, conformando una entidad constituida por pequeños núcleos, cada uno con su parroquia, de las que conocemos al menos los nombres de San Andrés, San Pedro, San Quirce, San Millán de Casasola, San Martín y San Miguel, de las cuales sólo han subsistido las dos últimas, correspondiendo la de San Miguel a la actual igle- sia de Humada." [source: Enciclopedia del románico]
The Enciclopedia del románico en Castilla y León (2002- ), in its entry for Humada, describes and illustrates a baptismal font that consists of a roughly hemispherical basin of reddish stone decorated with a broad ribbed pattern on the outside, raised on a short and plain cylindrical stem, and on a lower base that consists of an upper roll moulding with animal heads and ball motif, and a lower square volume [NB: the Enciclopedia.. describes the moulding as a snake, which may have been the effect intended with the little angle heads. The wooden cover, flat and plain, is modern]. The Enciclopedia… (ibid.) suggests this font may have been moved from the cemetery chapel [Ermita de Nuestra Señora del Rosario] to the Iglesia Parroquial de San Martín Obispo ["En la iglesia parroquial de Humada, templo gótico de planta de cruz latina, nave única cubierta con dos tramos de bóvedas estrelladas y cabecera poligonal, dedicado a San Martín, se conserva una pila bautismal de traza románica, que bien pudiera haber sido trasladada desde la ermita del cementerio. Presenta copa semiesférica gallonada y con bocel en la embocadura, de 95 cm de diámetro × 58 cm de altura. Se alza sobre un tenante cilíndrico, de 42 cm de altura, decorado con una gruesa serpiente a modo de bocel y cabecitas de orejas puntiagudas y bolas sobre el plinto." The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 23 December 2021] notes: "iglesia, dedicada a San Miguel Arcángel, renacentista [...] La pila es románica con gallones, pie cilíndrico y base cuadrada con serpiente". There is a holy-water stoup inside the church; it appears to be a composite object. [NB: see Index entry for San Martin de Humada for another Romanesque font located in the nearby village of San Martin de Humada, Iglesia Parroquial de San Martín Obispo]
