One of two objects of interest can be found in this church, both apparently Roman and made of alabaster; one is now used as the piscina, the other as holy-water stoup. A holy-water stoup in this church is noted and illustrated in a document dated 1859 "Informe acerca de una memoria sobre los sitios que ocuparon las ciudades romanas de Libia y Segasamundo, y antigüedades que se conservan en la villa de Herramelluri. El informe va acompañado de unos dibujos de una pila de agua bendita, de unas monedas, y del calco de una inscripción funeraria romana" [www.cervantesvirtual.com/obra/informe-acerca-de-una-memoria-sobre-los-sitios-que-ocuparon-las-ciudades-romanas-de-libia-y-segasamundo-y-antiguedades-que-se-conservan-en-la-villa-de-herramelluri-el-informe-va-acompaado-de-unos-dibujos-de-una-pila-de-agua-bendita-de-unas-monedas-y-del-calco-de-una-inscripcion-funeraria-romana/] [http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/nd/ark:/59851/bmcjd6g0] [accessed 15 November 2020]
