Catacombs were underground tunnels and burial galleries for Christian martyrs in ancient Rome. Christians would recognize the contributions of these martyrs by attending ceremonies in the catacombs on the anniversaries of the deaths of the martyrs. Catacombs have also been discovered in other places of the Roman Empire. Catacombs were forgotten for a thousand years and not rediscovered until the A.D. 1500s.
