The catacombs were organized by early Christians in Rome as underground burial sites due to limited space for cemeteries. They were developed as a network of tunnels and rooms to house the deceased and were later used for religious ceremonies and worship. The catacombs also served as a place of refuge and hiding for persecuted Christians.
