As every person passing by (villagers going to the
fields, traders, pilgrims and transhumants) had to cross the porch, the latter
stepping over the track dug into the rocks, protector
saints had to be represented among the characters on the pillars. Saint Christopher , for example, because of his location,
was immediately visible by those who came from Lorgues and expected his
intercession to face the dangers of the trip.
