==== Purpose ==== | |||
The [[wikipedia:Crypt|crypt]], also known as the under-church, is a place used for liturgical purposes and for storing the tombs of saints, relic shrines, altars and other valuable objects of sacred origin. According to early Christian custom, the crypt originally contained the relics of a martyr. Based on this and with reference to the early Christian prayer ''[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Te_Deum Te Deum]'', the crypt of the Cathedral of St. James was named the Crypt of the Noble Army of Martyrs. | |||
