An odd composite object is listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/66018] [accessed 30 July 2024] as a baptismal font in the parish church of Pinedo: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de San Juan de Pinedo. Vista frontal de una pila bautismal acanalada y con una gran hoja en la parte central. El pie es una columna también acanalada y con una cabeza humana en la parte superior". It appears to be arelatively modern made-up object and may have been used as a holy-water stoup but the source [cf. supra] identifies as a baptismal font. [NB: we have no information on the font of the medieval church here]
