Pagan motifs with Medusa in center of ceiling of cubiculum.

Mithras hunting. Fresco in the Mithraeum reconstructed in the Yale University Art Gallery.

Here the ceiling frescoes are restrained, staying within the bounds of their frames.

Fresco of a torah scroll in the arcosolium. The image of the Jewish Torah scroll is commanded in the book of Leviticus. The image seen here clearly designates this as a Jewish catacomb.

The steps leading down into the pool for baptism. Water levels have stayed the same for centuries. Here we have John the Baptist baptizing Christ. The image is especially important insofar as both stand shin deep in water.

Note fresco of baptism reflected in the water. (Also shown in CAT0040)

Jesus at the well talking to the Samaritan woman

Arcosolium damaged by grave robbers, Catacomb of Domatilla, Rome. Note the damages which mark the places both for inhumation and possibly for ashes.

Fresco of Jonah lying under the cucurbitas or gourd. A conflation with pagan imagery as Jonah lies in the position of Endymion.
