about A.D. 95, though he identifies Peter and Paul as the “noble examples” of the faith and speaks of their “many labors,”52 does not refer at all to Peter having been at Rome. And where Peter and Paul are spoken of together as “founders” of Roman Christianity by the early Church Fathers, it is not because they were the ones who first brought the gospel to Rome but because they both eventually ministered there, both suffered martyrdom there, and the mortal remains of both of them were preserved there.
