In particular, this research investigates Alfarano's autograph manuscripts preceding the Descriptio of 1582, with a particular focus on the biographical profile of the author. These manuscripts, many of which are held in the Archive of Saint Peter's Chapter, display the progressive evolution of Alfarano's work during the papacy of Gregory XIII Boncompagni (1572-1585). Starting from the Jubilee of 1575, this Pontiff left a fundamental mark in aint Peter's Basilica, in terms of both the construction of the new building, and the renewal of worship inside of it. In this period, Alfarano's ambitions and range of interests hit a turning point. Indeed, as the construction of the new Saint Peter's Basilica continued, Tiberio Alfarano showed an increased awareness of the importance of his work for the preservation of the historical memory of the Old Basilica of Saint Peter. In addition, he stressed the connection between him-as a member of the Chapter-and the liturgical choices of the pope.

The standing structures of this small building are partially preserved and the stratigraphy of its walls have been analyzed al¬so with the help of old photos from the excavations south of the basilica be-tween 1915 and 1921 and the restoration of the mausoleum in the years 1946-1951. In order to understand the many phases of the walls, all known drawings of the building have been examined together with the documentation conserved in the private archive of Vigilio de Grassi in Grado and at the Soprintendenza di Belle arti e paesaggio in Trieste. The study has shown that the south wall of the mausoleum may belong to an earlier building which hade been built against the south wall of the cathedral.
