Scientist have argued that at least a number of his travels and adventures may well have been made up, or rather 'second-hand': using stories and descriptions that he heard from other travellers. It is a fact that while some descriptions are accurate and could only have come from someone who had been there, it is also a fact that Marco Polo seems totally ignorant of other important facts and events that he should have known of and certainly would have told if he had been there himself. Also, there is little or no corroboration to be found in Chinese sources of the important roles he says he had played in the service of Kublai Khan.
