The earliest known icons of the Apostles Peter and Paul have been discovered in a catacomb under an eight-story modern office building in a working-class neighborhood of Rome, Vatican officials said Tuesday.

The images, which date from the second half of the 4th century, were discovered on the ceiling of a tomb that also includes the earliest known images of the apostles John and Andrew.

Jesus was mot a nazarite. He was a Nazarene. Paul was one only temporarily.

From http://en.allexperts.com/q/Baptists-954/Jesus-nazarite.htm .

"While I admire Dr. Henry, I would have to say that Jesus was not a Nazarite because if He would have been a Nazarite by vow he would not have drank wine or touched the dead or even took any of the vinegar given Him at the Cross as that would have broken His vow. Though He would not have been defiled by the activities because He is God the vow would have been broken and He would never break a vow expecially if He imposed it upon Himself. (2 Cor 1:20)"
