AD 79: Habemus Pointsam! From Linus to Anacletus
Manage episode 500695884 series 3487356
It's (probably) 79AD, and Pope Linus is dead, possibly as a martyr in a spot of local persecution. He is succeeded by Cletus, or Anacletus, or Anencletus, or maybe Clement, or possibly Evaristus. Definitely by someone, or several folks. Nero's gone, which is good, but so is the Temple, which is bad.
