Sicilia sotterranea_ (Munich, 1897); and D.C.
Barrecca, _Le Catacombe di San Giovanni in Siracusa_ (Syracuse, 1906).

A catacomb of the 5th century, discovered at Kertch in South Russia,
is described by J. Kulakovsky in _Materials for Russian Archaeology_
(St Petersburg, 1896; a publication of the Russian Imperial
Archaeological Commission), but it is written in Russian, as also is
the account by V. Latyshev, in _Vizantieski Vremennik_, vol. vi. pp.
337 ff. (St Petersburg, 1899).

The catacombs at Hadrumetum (Sousse) are described by A.F. Leynard,
_Les Catacombes d'Hadrumete, deuxieme campagne de fouilles_
(1904-1905). See also _Revue Tunisienne_ (1905), p. 250.

For the catacombs of Alexandria, Neroutsos Bey, _L'Ancienne
Alexandrie_, may be consulted in addition to De Rossi's article
mentioned in the text. (O. M. D.)

FOOTNOTES:

[1] The most important of these lists are the two Itineraries
belonging to the first half of the 7th century, in the Salzburg
library. One still earlier, but less complete, appears in the
_Notitia Urbis Romae_, under the title _Index Coemeteriorum_. Another
Itinerary, preserved at Einsiedeln, printed by Mabillon, dates from
the latter half of the same century. That found in the works of
William of Malmesbury (Hardy's ed. vol. ii. pp. 539-544) appears to
be copied from it, or both may be from the same source. De Rossi
gives a comparative table of these Itineraries and other similar
lists.

[5] Mommsen's chosen example of an ancient burial-chamber, extending
itself into a catacomb, or gathering subterranean additions round it
till a catacomb was established, is that of the cemetery of St
Domitilla, traditionally identified with a granddaughter of
Vespasian, and the catacomb of Santi Nereo ed Achilleo on the Appian
and Ardeatine way.
