The Search for St. Peter

At the Vatican in Rome stands the most iconic Christian church in the world, St. Peter's Basilica. It's named after the one-time fisherman turned saint – the famous bearded bouncer who controls the Pearly gates of heaven – St Peter. According to Christian tradition, Peter is buried deep in the catacombs underneath the basilica. But is there any actual archaeological proof that St. Peter is there? In this episode, the Naked Archaeologist tracks down the last footsteps of St. Peter and you may be very surprised where they lead!
