Beneath St. Peter's: The Pagan Dead Under Christianity's Holiest Floor
from Crazy Alchemist · host Crazy Alchemist
Beneath St. Peter's Basilica lies a Roman cemetery where Horus guards tomb doors, Dionysus rides in triumph, and a 3rd-century mosaic shows Christ as the sun god. The Vatican was built on a hill of the pagan dead, next to Nero's circus, and beside a temple where priests bathed in bull blood.
