E. I.Smith Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 On May 31, 1578, the catacombs of Rome were accidentally rediscovered on the Via Salaria, an ancient Roman road in Northern Italy. A man named Antonio Bosio eventually discovered thirty separate entrances into these catacombs, which are several stories underground and served as a burial place for Christians as well as for Roman citizens of other faiths. The catacombs are a fascinating part of Roman and early Christian history. Seeing them in person would be a true privilege. https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-ea88bb0a1eadcf27d755dc877601509f.webp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indianasmith Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 One of my greatest goals in life is to travel to Rome before I die, and the catacombs are one of the places I want to see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
