The early evidence for the martyrdom of Peter in Rome is extremely exiguous. Perhaps the most important passage is I Clement v. 4. Certainly none other until the end of the second century is equally explicit as to Peter's fate. Therefore it is of some interest that I Clem. v. 4 can itself be completely explained as exegesis of Acts iii-v and xii, especially of v. 17 and xii. 17.
page 86 note 1 Most recently by Strobel, A., ‘Passa-Symbolik und Passa-Wunder in Act. xii. 3 ff.’, NT.S. IV (1958), 210 ff.Google Scholar The fullest exposition of the parallelism is that by Davis, G. Jr, ‘Was Peter Buried in Rome?,’ J.B.R. xx (1952), 167 ff. This demonstrates the point-by-point correspondence of the story in Acts xii. to the passion story, using elements from John, Matthew and Mark, as well as Luke.
