Aulus Valerius Ursus

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Aulus Valerius Ursus was a Roman sculptor in 120.

He thought that the goddess Minerva had given him the ability to turn people to stone, but it was actually a GENIE from the future. He died after falling on his own sacrificial dagger during a struggle with Rose Tyler. (PROSE: The Stone Rose)
