A capital, inside the former abbey church. The "context" could not be reconstructed. It is probably older than the church. The weathered carving seems not very skilled. I could not "translate" the scene. Maybe Abraham..

Bénévent-l'Abbaye

.....named the abbey after the italian town, from where the relics of Saint-Barthélémy had been moved to here. This made it easier for the relics, to adapt to the new home. A really medieval idea!...
