Mary, mother of John Mark – commonly associated with Mark the Evangelist – is mentioned in the New Testament of the Christian Bible, in Acts 12:12,[1] where it is said that, after his escape from prison, Peter went to her house: "When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying."[2] This seems to be the only mention of her in the Bible. From this it would appear that Mary's house was a place of gathering for the Apostles and other Christians.
The Monastery of Saint Mark, in the Old City of Jerusalem, contains a 6th-century inscription claiming the place is the site of "the house of Mary, mother of John Mark".
