TOMB 45

Tomb 45 is located behind tomb 44 and shares its left wall.
The entrance is built to the north and transverse to the Via severiana.
The right wall borders on tomb 46.
The burial chamber was organized for a mixed form of burial.
In the lower part of the walls are two rows of arcosolia
for inhumation. Besides that there are still traces of semicircular and
small rectangular niches for urns in the right wall.
The ceiling and roof are missing.
Beneath the floor were six formae, each with place for two bodies.
From the many pieces of stone found in the formae we may conclude that
the floor originally was made of mosaic.
Of a possible painted decoration nothing was found.
Tomb 45 was built in the middle of the second century AD.
