About Catacomb of San Lorenzo
The Catacomb of San Lorenzo or Catacomb of Cyriaca is a five-level catacomb on via Tiburtina under the church of San Lorenzo fuori le mura in the modern Tiburtino quarter.
Its most common dedication in the ancient sources is to Saint Laurence, buried in it - the mid 4th century Depositio martyrum states he was buried on 10 August "in Tiburtina" but does not give a name for the cemetery, showing that by the time of writing it was already named after Laurence.
