Giordani catacombs, Early Christian catacombs in Via Salaria Nova, Rome, Italy.

The Giordani catacombs contain an extensive network of burial chambers and galleries organized across five underground levels beneath Villa Ada.

Archaeological evidence indicates the catacombs were established during the second half of the third century, with inscriptions dating back to 269 AD.

The Cubicle of the Exodus features fourth-century frescoes that represent early Christian artistic expressions and burial traditions in ancient Rome.

The catacombs remain closed to public access, though researchers can request permission to study the archaeological site through official channels.

The vault contains rare depictions of biblical episodes not commonly found in other Roman catacombs, making it valuable for religious art studies.
