Includes bibliographical references and index.
Around the year 67 A.D. Saint Peter suffered death by crucifixion during the reign of Emperor Nero and was laid to rest in a nearby cemetery on the Vatican Hill. In the year 320 the emperor, Constantine, began the construction of a large basilica in honour of St Peter, central to which was a shrine that encased both his tomb and the monument which had been subsequently built above it. The authors of the book,Toynbee and Perkins paint a picture of the excavations under St. Peter's that started in the 1950s.
