The sanctuary was transformed according to early Christian ritual, and as in other parts of the peninsula, in the chapel of Santa Eulalia. The ritual of the mystery of Cybele was persecuted because he entered into direct confrontation with the new Judeo-Christian baptism. This ritual covered pond with a new marble floor and punched the wall paintings below, surely referring to the mysteries of the goddess. Only pagan symbols such as ostriches hidden reliefs and sculpture of the black stone on the column were saved by not being understood in its true dimension.
PAINTING SANTA EULALIA

characteristics remained sibyls oracle in the voices of birds. Eulalia and features from the Greek prefix eu (eu), meaning good, propitious, favorable. The second element, lalia (LALI), the verb lalew (laleo) means hablar. El conjunto de los dos elementos nos da para el nombre de Eulalia el significado de "Bien hablada", "Elocuente", "Convincente", característica determinante de las Sibilas.
Santa Eulalia vivió entre los siglos III-IV, mujer joven, virgen y mártir que, según la tradición, nació en el barrio barcelonés de Sarriá. Dedicó su juventud a impartir enseñanzas y consejos entre los niños y los más necesitados, dejando un gran ejemplo de fe. Dice la tradición que al morir la santa, la gente vio una blanquísima paloma que volaba hacia el cielo, y que los verdugos salieron huyendo. La Santa, que por esa razón es patrona de las aves, ofrecía sus consejos a los demás; both features related to the pagan image of the sibyl.

What is surprising is that instead of mural paintings in the cathedral of Barcelona geese, pheasants, quails and pigeons are alive, are looked after with care by the priests and sing their predictions every day.
