St. Prisca was a noble Roman lady, and after many torments finished her triumph by the sword, about the year 275. She is venerated at Rome in a church of the same name on Mount Aventine. The tradition at Rome is that St. Peter consecrated an altar, and baptized there in an urn of stone that is now kept in the church of St. Prisca.
