WHEN WAS niccolo polo bron and when did he die?
Niccolo polo was born in 1252 and died in 1294.
Actually that is wrong, who ever posted it probably got the wrong info or got mixed up with Niccolo Polo's son. He was born in1254 so it is impossible for Niccolo Polo to be born in 1252. He was actually born on a different date. But I am a little fuzzy about when exactly. You should look in some books and not on Wikipedia and answers.com because they are wrote by people who think they can trick us. I wouldn't trust all of it if this was an assignment or project. Hope this helped!
