da Wikipedia: La chiesa ha origini molto antiche. Attorno alla basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore sorsero molte chiese, tra cui, come attesta una lapide del 491, un titulus Praxedis. Questo fa riferimento alle vicende della famiglia del senatore Pudente (I secolo d.C.), che la tradizione enuclea tra le prime persone convertite a Roma dall'apostolo Paolo; con Pudente si convertirono al cristianesimo anche le figlie Pudenziana e Prassede. L'intera famiglia subì il martirio ed i loro corpi furono deposti nelle catacombe di Priscilla, sulla via Salaria. Il titulus Praxedis sorse nella casa di proprietà di Prassede, la quale soleva nascondervi i cristiani perseguitati: la tradizione racconta che la santa raccoglieva con una spugna il sangue versato dai martiri per versarlo in un pozzo.
