Vatican necropolis — by Jeffrey Becker — last modified Jul 11, 2024 01:15 PM

The Vatican necropolis lies beneath Vatican City, specifically beneath the present St. Peter's Basilica, at depths ranging from 5 to 12 meters. The necropolis was partially exposed by means of archaeological excavations in 1940-1949. The necropolis was an open-air burial ground that included both mausolea and tombs. Notable among the documented tombs are the Tomb of the Iulii and the tomb that is conventionally believed to be that of Saint Peter (a.k.a. Peter the Apostle). The tomb of the saint, said to be located near the site of his martyrdom, provides a point of topographic orientation for the Constantinian project that came to be Old St. Peter's. The necropolis remained in use until at least 318.

This ancient river, identified with the modern Santerno, is one of many draining the northern slopes of the Appenines into the Po valley. Today, the Santerno eventually empties into the modern Reno, but in antiquity it flowed, possibly in multiple branches, further into the complex and now much-changed Padus (Po) delta.
