	Giovanni da Pian del Carpini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Carpini started from Lyons, where the pope then resided, on Easter day (April 16, 1245), accompanied by another friar, one Stephen of Bohemia, who broke down at Kanev near Kiev, and was left behind.
		Upon the last-named stood the Ordu or camp of Batu, the famous conqueror of eastern Europe, and the supreme Mongol commander on the western frontiers of the empire, as well as one of the most senior princes of the house of Genghis Khan.
		Carpini was not only an old man when he went cheerfully upon this mission, but was, as we know from accidental evidence in the annals of his order, a fat and heavy man (vir gravis et corpulentus), insomuch that during his preachings in Germany he was fain, contrary to Franciscan precedent, to ride a donkey.

	Brutakhi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Giovanni di Plano Carpini, a 13-century papal legate to the court of the Mongol Khan Guyuk, gave a list of the nations the Mongols had conquered in his account.
		Some translations read "Comani Brutakhi", which seems to indicate an alignment with the Kipchaks; however, this reading has been challenged by many historians who have asserted that there should be a comma between the Comani and Brutakhi.
		Giovanni later refers to the Brutakhi as shaving their heads, a common Turkic custom.

	info: GIOVANNI DA VERRAZANO (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Giovanni da Verrazano was born at Val di Greve, near the city of Florence, in the Tuscan region of Italy in about 1485 and died in 1528 in the Lesser Antilles.
		Sailing along the Outer Banks of present-day North Carolina, he recorded what he observed to be a large inland sea, which he thought was the beginning of the Pacific Ocean, although it is actually the estuary of the Pamlico Sound.
		This mistake led mapmakers, starting with Vesconte de Maggiolo in 1527 and Giovanni's brother Girolamo da Verrazano in 1529, to draw North America as being almost split in two, the two parts connected by a thin land bridge on the East Coast.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Church in China
		John of Plano Carpini, a Franciscan, accompanied by Friar Stephen of Bohemia, left Lyons on 16 April, 1245, and was joined at Breslau by Friar Benedict, a Pole.
		An apostolic legate, Francisco di Podio, with twelve companions, was sent out in 1371, but they were never heard from; all the Christian missions disappeared in the turmoil which followed the fall of the Mongols and the accession of the Ming dynasty (1368).
		The Missions Estrangères had priests at Nan-king (Cotolendi died on the journey; Laneau, who resided at Siam); in the province of Fu-kien (Pallu, 1679-84; Charles Maigrot, 1697-1707); in the province of Sze-ch'wan (Artsu de Lyonne, 1697-1713); in the province of Yun-nan (Philibert le Blanc, 16697; Enjobert de Martillat, 1727-52).

	Giovanni di Paolo - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Giovanni di Paolo
		He ranks with Stefano di Sassetta, by whom he was influenced, as the leading Sienese painter of the 14th century.
		He is also known as Giovanni del Poggio, from the district of Siena where he lived.
		His work is individual in its imaginative simplification, and fantastic in effect, as in his Miracle of St Nicholas of Bari (Philadelphia Museum of Art).

		Friar Carpini was sent by Pope Innocent IV on an embassy to the Mongols; this is his account of the journey.
		Carpini isn't encyclopedic on any of these subjects, but he does manage a decent overview.
		There are only a couple of illustrations and no maps; the book would be improved if the reader could see where Carpini went, and pictures of what he's talking about.
