Antipas of Pergamum was a first-century Christian bishop and hieromartyr. According to tradition, he was appointed to lead the church in Pergamon by the Apostle John during the reign of Emperor Nero. He is identified in the biblical Book of Revelation as a faithful martyr who remained steadfast in his belief despite living in a location described as the seat of Satan. His life and death are central to the historical identity of the early Christian community in Asia Minor.
