I noticed this plaque on
the little, unimpressive basilica on my left, and
asked Elaine, "Are you up to one more
basilica?" "Sure," she said, and
we went in and took the nice interior shot of
this little place. After we got back to the hotel
and Elaine checked the Judy Testa book, we
noticed that this was the third church in our
neighborhood which was dedicated to lady saints
of the Roman Catholic church. |

We are eating our last meal in Italy at a
very small restaurant across the street from our
hotel. it has been a fantastic trip, one which we
will remember for many years to come. We hope you
all enjoyed this travelogue. We certainly enjoyed
reliving the experience through our pictures. |

The picture to the left was taken by a
passerby while were were walking down Panisperna
toward S. Maria Maggiere. (Below.) All we had to
do was bare left on Urbana straight to our hotel. |

Basilica Di S.
Pudenziana |
The
predominant church dedicated to the predominant
lady Mary, mother of Jesus, was S. Maria
Maggiere. But Sisters Pressaida and Pudenziana
were sainted very early in the Roman Christian
era before the rise of the Mary era, and now the
Church doesn't even admit to the existence of the
other two ladies. But their basilicas still
exist, even though they are overshadowed, even in
this neighborhood, by the major lady, Mary. |
