Pope John XXI (Latin: Ioannes XXI; c.?1215 – 20 May 1277), born Peter Juliani (Latin: Petrus Iulianus; Portuguese: Pedro Julião), was Pope from 8 September 1276 to his death in 1277.
Apart from Damasus I (from Roman Lusitania), he has been the only Portuguese pope.
He is sometimes identified with the logician and herbalist Peter of Spain (Latin: Petrus Hispanus; Portuguese: Pedro Hispano), which would make him the only pope to have been a physician."Pope John XXI" was actually the 19th pope named John, but decided to skip the number XX.
