Font Notes:
The entry for this church in ArtMedieval [http://www.artmedieval.net/Lleida/Sant Joan boi.htm] [accessed 1 October 2023] mentions a baptismal font and a holy-water stoup in this church ["una pica baptismal i una beneitera"] but illustrates only the round vessel on the ground of the north aisle. The same information ["una pica baptismal i una beneitera"] is given in the entry in Coneixer Catalunya [http://coneixercatalunya.blogspot.com/2020/09/esglesia-de-sant-joan-baptista-de-boi.html] [accessed 1 October 2023]. The entry for this church in El Turista Tranquil [https://www.elturistatranquil.com/ca/esglesies-romaniques-de-sant-joan-de-boi-i-santa-eulalia-derill-la-vall-la-vall-de-boi-3/] [accessed 1 October 2023] notes and illustrates a holy-water stoup by the entrance ["una pica de aigua beneïda prop de la porta de entrada"] and a tithe-oil tank in the south aisle ["Al centre de la nau lateral de l’epístola es conserva al terra una gran caldera de pedra per als olis"] [NB: the 'stoup' may have been used in the past as a baptismal font, hence the side anchoring spot visible on its side for a cover.
