Christians and death: A study of the origins
of the christian catacombs of Rome

     Abstract
     This Ph.D. dissertation addresses the question of
     whether the famous catacombs of Rome are a
     Christian invention.

I recall reading that the catacombs existed before the Christians and
that they had been created by the removal of tufa (sp?). Also, which
came first: the Jewish or the Christian burials in the catacombs?

She didn't look at the Jewish catacombs.
