Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Anthropomorphic or "Olerdola" tombs at the necropolis of the rock carved chapel of San Vicente en Vado, Cervera de Pisuerga (Palencia, Castile and León). It is located close to the confluence of river Rivera with the Pisuerga, and it falls within one of the large Spanish hermitage groups, the one of Alto Pisuerga. It basically presents a large rectangular room with several entrances and rough openings, to which is added a chapel excavated in the East, differentiated from the rest by a step that may have been closed using a masonry apse. The chapel is surrounded by a necropolis, dated between the 8th and 11th centuries, where about twenty tombs excavated in the rock have been discovered, predominantly of anthropomorphic type. The chapel and the necropolis probably formed part of a small monastic complex that would possess other buildings today disappeared, as well as cells excavated in the rock (lauras) that still remain. After the monastic community disappeared, San Vicente retained its role as a chapel until the middle of the 19th century, when it was permanently abandoned.
Español: Tumbas antropomórficas u olerdolanas en la necrópolis de la ermita rupestre de San Vicente en Vado, Cervera de Pisuerga (Palencia, Castilla y León). Se encuentra en las cercanías de la confluencia del río Rivera con el Pisuerga, y se enmarca dentro de uno de los grandes conjuntos eremíticos españoles, el del Alto Pisuerga. Básicamente presenta una gran sala rectangular con varias entradas y toscos vanos, a la que se suma, una capilla excavada al Este, diferenciada del resto por un escalón, que pudo haber estado cerrada mediante un ábside de mampostería.
La Ermita está rodeada de una necrópolis, fechada entre los siglos VIII y XI, de la que se han descubierto una veintena de tumbas excavadas en la roca, predominando las de tipo antropomorfo. La Ermita y la necrópolis probablemente formaron parte de un pequeño complejo monástico que poseería otros edificios hoy desaparecidos, así como celdas excavadas en la roca (lauras) que aún hoy perduran. Desaparecida la comunidad monacal, San Vicente conservó su función como ermita hasta mediados del siglo XIX en que se abandona definitivamente. |
