Marcus Furius Fusus

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

According to ancient tradition, Marcus Furius Fusus was a Roman consular tribune in 403 BC. In a six-member consular tribune college.

In the Fasti Capitolini he is known as “M. For [ius - f. - n.] Fusus ”, also in Diodorus . Titus Livius uses Marcus Postumius instead of M. Furius, but this is probably based on an error.

While Appius Claudius Crassus Inregillensis remained in Rome, the other consular tribunes waged war against Veji .
