Were any rabbis crucified by the Romans?

I was just wondering: you read in history books how the Romans used crucifixion as a death sentence for lots of people, not just that one famous guy, but I can’t recall any stories where that was the death decreed for any of the rabbinic martyrs. This seems odd in context. Especially in the late pre-Christian empire when there was a definite split between the Jews and the minim, I could see the Romans reaching for that punishment as a way to be extra offensive. Is this as much of an anomaly as it seems? Was crucifixion actually much rarer than some accounts lead you to believe?
