Fuscus (sculptor)
Fuscus , son of a Longinos, was an ancient sculptor , probably active in Isauria in Asia Minor during the Roman Empire in the third century . Today it is only known from the signature on an Ostothek ("bone box" ) that was found in Sobran (today Bağyurdu ). On this he is named as a sculptor with his brother Longinos ( ancient Greek λατύπος ). The Ostothek is now in the Konya Archaeological Museum .
