To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many fragments of fine sculpture and terra-cotta ornaments found on the spot are now built into the walls of the modem buildings. The ground on which it was called after S. Helena seems rather doubtful ; but it was so considered by the antiquaries of the day at the time it was found, and the Pope gave it that name in accordance with their opinion. The style of the pavements and the ornaments agree with the second century rather than the time of Constantine. There are several patterns in the mos...aic pavements, and all of them good.
The approach by an incline, instead of stairs, is a very unusual fea- ture, believed to be unique in the Catacombs. Whatever sarcophagi, or tombstones with inscriptions, may have been there, have been all carried away.
