Marco Polo was an adventurer/explorer born in Venice, Italy. He was a Christian merchant whose travels are recorded in "Il Milione," a book which did much to introduce Europeans to Central Asia and China. He learned about trading from talking with his father and uncle, who travelled through Asia and met the famous Kublai Khan.
In 1269, they returned to Venice to meet Marco for the first time. The three of them embarked on an epic journey to Asia, returning after 24 years to find Venice at war with Genoa; Marco was imprisoned and dictated his stories to a cellmate. He was released in 1299, became a wealthy merchant, married and had three children. He died in 1324, and was buried in San Lorenzo.
