This ground plan of Roman catacombs dates to 1897. These catacombs were originally quarries, some of which predate the founding of Rome (said to be 753 B.C.). They were said to be extended so that eventually all the seven hills of Roime were pierced by them. They are low dark corridors or vaulted halls excavated in the soft volcanic tufa and puzzolana, in the lateral walls of which apertures were made for the reception of corpses. In all there are some 40 Catacombs, each forming a network of galleries, usually intersection one another at right angles.The whole length of the Roman catacombs is Stock Photohttps://www.alamy.com/image-license-details/?v=1https://www.alamy.com/this-ground-plan-of-roman-catacombs-dates-to-1897-these-catacombs-were-originally-quarries-some-of-which-predate-the-founding-of-rome-said-to-be-753-bc-they-were-said-to-be-extended-so-that-eventually-all-the-seven-hills-of-roime-were-pierced-by-them-they-are-low-dark-corridors-or-vaulted-halls-excavated-in-the-soft-volcanic-tufa-and-puzzolana-in-the-lateral-walls-of-which-apertures-were-made-for-the-reception-of-corpses-in-all-there-are-some-40-catacombs-each-forming-a-network-of-galleries-usually-intersection-one-another-at-right-anglesthe-whole-length-of-the-roman-catacombs-is-image328979185.html

This 1910 illustration shows a wall painting of a Eucharistic meal in the catacomb of St Callixtus in Rome. The Eucharist is a re-enactment of the Last Supper, the final meal that Jesus Christ shared with his disciples before his arrest, and eventual crucifixion. At the meal Jesus ate bread and wine and instructed his disciples to do the same in memory of him. The Catacomb of Callixtus is one of the Catacombs of Rome on the Appian Way, most notable for containing the Crypt of the Popes, which once contained the tombs of several popes from the 2nd to 4th centuries Stock Photohttps://www.alamy.com/image-license-details/?v=1https://www.alamy.com/this-1910-illustration-shows-a-wall-painting-of-a-eucharistic-meal-in-the-catacomb-of-st-callixtus-in-rome-the-eucharist-isa-re-enactment-of-the-last-supper-the-final-meal-that-jesus-christ-shared-with-his-disciples-before-his-arrest-and-eventual-crucifixion-at-the-meal-jesus-ate-bread-and-wine-and-instructed-his-disciples-to-do-the-same-in-memory-of-him-the-catacomb-of-callixtus-is-one-of-the-catacombs-of-rome-on-the-appian-way-most-notable-for-containing-the-crypt-of-the-popes-which-once-contained-the-tombs-of-several-popes-from-the-2nd-to-4th-centuries-image442915403.html
