The role of bishop came about in the early part of the second century, beginning in the more established Christian cities of the eastern Mediterranean area. According to Catholic tradition, the apostle Peter was the first bishop of Rome, but Francis A. Sullivan says, in From Apostles to Bishops, that there is a general agreement among scholars, including Catholic scholars, that the church of Rome was led by a council of presbyters until well into the second century, with no evidence of a ruling bishop. The first monarchical bishop of Rome was probably either Pius I or Anicetus , in the middle of the second century.
