Natalius (Template:Lang-la, Template:Lang-la, c. 199 - c. 200) was a figure in early church history who is sometimes considered to be the first Antipope of Rome.[1]
The only information about Natalius is a quote from an unnamed earlier writer by Eusebius,[2] telling of a 3rd-century priest who accepted the bishopric of the Adoptionists,[1] a heretical group in Rome. Natalius soon repented and tearfully begged Pope Zephyrinus to receive him into communion.[3][4]
