Fusca of Ravenna was a young martyr who died around 250 AD during the Decian persecution. Born to a nobleman, she was raised by a slave named Maura, who also shared her Christian faith. After being baptized by the priest Ermolar, the two women were reported to a local judge by Fusca's father. This led to their execution on February 13, 250, at which time Fusca was approximately 15 years old. She is recognized as a saint within the Roman Catholic tradition.
