![The source caption "Personaje bebiendo de un barril" identifies this as a person drinking from a barrel but, as stated in Alberto García Roldán's notes on the "dolio" or "dolium", "Son representaciones reales de un antiguo instrumento musical medieval, ampliamente representado en nuestras iglesias romanicas, un tipo de aerófono que dejó muy pocas huellas históricas. El instrumento, totalmente desconocido hasta hace pocos años, fue identificado por el historiador y musicólogo Faustino Porras Robles, especialista en representaciones musicales en el arte románico, quien en 2007 publicó un trabajo sobre este asunto en la Revista de Folklore que edita la Fundación Joaquín Díaz. Porras Robles dio a este instrumento, cuya denominación original se desconoce, el nombre de DOLIO (del latín dolium o tonel)."
