Pope Damasus I (366-384) is credited with being the first bishop of Rome to claim specific primacy over the Church as a whole. The Council of Nicaea in 325 had only recognised the bishop of Rome as having authority in his area, although the boundaries of that area were not defined. Damasus also commissioned his secretary, Jerome, to translate the Vulgate Bible. Militating against his sainthood is his complicity in two massacres to secure for himself the papacy, as well as a further allegation of murder.
