Tomb 37 is completely detached and has on both side walls a passageway to tombs 72 and 75. The grave lies closer to the Via Severiana than the previous tombs.
The burial chamber had at least two rows of arcosolia alongside each wall, with the exception of the entrance wall.
Beneath the floor formae for four bodies each have been found.
There are no traces of decoration.
