Show me this ossuary....got a link?
Peter was not writing from Mesopotamia, which wasn’t even part of the Roman Empire at the time. It belonged to Parthia. Turn to the early part of 1st Peter. Pontus, Galacia, Bithynia...notice those are all Roman provinces? Notice the two people he says he has with him have decidedly Roman names: Silvanus and Mark (Marcus)?
And speaking of his “son” Mark who was with him there, isn’t it odd that he would follow Peter to Mesopotamia and then write a Gospel that’s full of Latinisms and not Akkadian or Aramaic ones?
What, didjer finners fawl awf?

So what? More important is the Silk Road, and the jurisdiction of the Jews in Babylon (as pertains to the synagogues)... Did you forget that Peter is an Apostle to the Jews?

Find the Northern trade route out of Babylon... Hmmm, I wonder where that goes?

More important is the absolute silence of Paul... All that time up in Rome, and not a single mention of Peter... Gee, I guess he was too busy sitting on that great golden throne, getting his toes slobbered on... That's probably why Peter had no time for the little people'... ; )
