When did Peter - bishop - die?
Although tradition says that Peter was crucified on the orders of Emperor Nero, it seems that this was unlikely to have been the case. In fact we do not know when or how Peter really died.The first known mention of the execution of St. Peter was made by the second-century Pope Anicetus who, wishing to demonstrate that he spoke with the authority of Peter, reported that Peter had been beheaded in Rome. A century later, Origen changed this to say that Peter was sentenced to crucifixion but, feeling unworthy of being crucified like Jesus, asked to be crucified upside down.Yet Clement of Rome, writing around 95 CE (1 Clement), spoke in general terms about the life and death of Peter but appears to have been unaware that he had even visited Rome and was certainly unaware that he had been executed in any way at all.

What is the symbolic meaning of the apostle Peter's death?
The second-century Pope Anicetas, who wished to demonstrate that he spoke with the authority of Peter, reported that Peter had travelled to Rome to lead the Church there, and had been beheaded in Rome. A century later, Origen changed this to say that Peter was sentenced to crucifixion but, feeling unworthy of being crucified like Jesus, asked to be crucified upside down. This was to be important to the tradition that the bishop of Rome is the natural leader of the entire Christian Church. Roman Catholic tradition lists all the popes as bishops of Rome, from Peter right through the first and second centuries and beyond.However there is no reliable evidence that Peter was ever executed for his faith, and we do not really know how or when he died. Clement of Rome, writing around 95 CE (1 Clement), spoke in general terms about the life and death of Peter but appears to have been unaware that he had even visited Rome or that he had been executed just a few years earlier. So, from a historical perspective, there is no more symbolism in Peter's death than in the death of any other human.
