Zosimus, M. Canuleius
a geld and silver chaser, whose skill and probity are praised in an extant inscription. (Gruter, p. dcxxxix; Sillig. Catal. Artif. App. s. v.) The name is also found on some ancient cameos; and Raoul-Rochette, assuming the identity of the artist, takes this as a new proof that the art of engraving on metals and on precious stones was often practised by the same persons. (Lettre à M. Schorn, p. 158, 2d ed.)
