The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 31 January 2021] notes: "Su iglesia, de pequeñas proporciones, estaba dedicada a Santa Isabel y antes a Santiago [...] la pila es de estilo indefinido. [...] Ael se adentra en la historia porque se ha conservado en al hastial del ábside de su iglesia una piedra con una inscripción sobre el culto de la Santa Cruz, de clara influencia asturiana visigótica, que se remonta a la Alta Edad Madia, si-glos IX al X: “Hoc signo tuetur pius. Hoc signo vincitur inimicus”, que se encuentra actualmente en el Ayuntamiento de Medina de Pomar." [NB: an unreferenced entry in Wikipedia [https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ael] [accessed 31 January 2021] gives the location of the "lápida fundacional de Ael" as the "Museo del Retablo de Burgos" [cf. ImagesArea for confirmation of its location in July 2020].
