Pope Leo I, who is also known as St. Leo the Great by Catholics, was Bishop of Rome and thus Pope from 440 to 461. Leo strengthened the central authority of the Bishop of Rome in the early church, and is famous for going out to meet Attila the Hun to convince him not to invade and plunder Rome. In 451, he sent a letter, known as the Tome, to the Council of Chalcedon. When the letter was read to the bishops in attendance, they are recorded as proclaiming "Peter has spoken through Leo". This was perhaps the first public expression of what is now called the "Petrine authority" of the pope as successor of St. Peter.
