If I am to be Sola Scriptura then I don't see how I can appeal to history (argument of antiquities)

The first secualr college Iwent to in the 1980's I was required to take a class in
Western Civilization. One chapter spoke of the birth of the Christian church and the experience on the Day of Pentecost, and then the next chapter spoke of Peter being the first pope of the Catholic church.
As was always my custom in secular college [quite vocal] I raised my hand and asked, "How did Peter go from being the first to preach on the Day of Pentecost to the Pope of the Roman Catholic church?" The professor said we would talk after class. When class was finished he told me that Peter was never Catholic but he had to teach it that way according to policy of the college.
