Sunday, February 14, 2010  From Rome: Tomb of Sts. Cosmas and
Damian  This is the crypt chapel underneath the Roman Basilica
leading to the Roman Forum where the remains of Sts. Cosmas and
Damian are kept entombed inside the altar.  To see it just have
the porter of the Basilica telephone the rector to ask
permission.  N.B. Feel free to put one of these pics on the
Wikipedia page.  1 comment:    1. Banal "simplicity" reigns it
seems alo in that crypt. Are there no appropriate altar
candlesticks in the whole church? I doubt that in the Eeast they
would lay such mingy pillar candles at a site where we venerate
our great saints.
