Linus (born in Etruria, died in 79, probably in Rome) was probably bishop of Rome from 67 to 79. In early Christian lists, Linus is named as the first bishop of Rome, but it was not until the late 2nd or early 3rd century that the view prevailed that Peter was the first bishop and Linus the second. Linus is honoured as a martyr and saint in the Roman Catholic Church, Historical, authentic, digitally restored reproduction from a 19th century original, Record date not stated
