Peter, while in [[Rome]] around 67 AD, died a [[martyr]]. Jesus had predicted the violent death Peter would die,<ref>"http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%2021:18,19;&version=31;"</ref> and his crucifixion in Rome is said to be the prophesy coming true. At the [[crucifixion]], Peter asked to be crucified upside down, believing he didn't deserve to die the same way Christ his savior had died. He is identified as the first [[Pope]] of the Roman [[Catholic Church]].
