The arched niche (arcosolium) for at least 3 burials is located in the Catacombs of San Gennaro (Naples). The Catacombs were used for burials from the 2nd century AD to the middle ages. Only in the front part of the arch a white plaster layer has partially been preserved. The other parts of the walls are unpainted. A recesses on the right side could have been the place for a lamp.
