Catacomb of the Two Felixes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Catacomb of the Two Felixes (Italian: catacomba dei due Felici) is a catacomb on the ancient via Aurelia in Rome, run by the Pontifical Commission for Sacred Archaeology.[1] Its ancient name is unknown but the Notitia ecclesiarum urbis Romae states of a catacomb near those of San Pancrazio and Santi Processo e Martiniano (but further from central Rome than them, which neighbour each other) "and you ascend above and you will reach the church; there Saint[s] Martianus and Processus rest under the earth, and saint Lucina, virgin and martyr, in the upper part; then you will reach by the same via [Aurelia] the two martyred holy pontiffs both named Felix".[2]
