Description
Figure of an animal, possibly a dog or pig. Flat rear part, to be attached to another surface. Mouth painted red. It was recovered, together with other pieces, in the 2007 excavation in the church of Sant Miquel d'Olèrdola, within the framework of the restoration project of the pre-Romanesque and Romanesque building. The plaster objects were hidden in a liturgical cabinet located on the north facing of the nave, near the chancel arch. This cupboard was related to a raised choir located in this space.
