	Zeno brothers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Zeno family was an established part of the aristocracy of Venice and held the franchise for transportation between Venetian and the Holy Land during the Crusades.
		The brothers Nicolò and Antonio are famous today mostly because of a set of letters and map (called the Zeno map) published in the year 1558 by Nicolò's descendant, also called Nicolò Zeno.
		The letters, allegedly written by the two brothers around the 1400, purport to describe a voyage of exploration taken by the brothers throughout the North Atlantic (and by some interpretations to North America), under the command of a prince named Zichmni (who some have identified as Henry Sinclair).

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Zeno
		Zeno had not been known as a writer before 1508, when two Dominicans, Albertus Castellanus and Jacobus de Leuco, edited at Venice 105 tractatus or sermons found in the episcopal library of Verona fifty years earlier.
		From these it appears that Zeno was a native of Africa, eighth Bishop of Verona (362-80), an able speaker, and an untiring champion of Christianity against the heathens and of orthodoxy against the Arians.
		Much controversy arose as to the time at which St. Zeno lives, whether two bishops of Verona of this name were to be admitted or but one, and on the authorship of the sermons.

	Earl Henry Sinclair's fictitious trip to America, by Brian Smith

		Zeno said that Zichmni owned some 'islands called Porlanda, near to Frislanda on the south side, the richest and most populous in all those parts', and that he was duke of 'Sorant' or 'Sorand'.

	CRUISING NOVA SCOTIA - 600 YEARS AGO!
		Zeno faithfully wrote home to Venice about his adventures serving a northern prince named "Zichmni," Excerpts of these letters and a "sea chart" were published in 1558, and it has been deduced by many researchers over the past 100 years that Zichmni was in fact Henry Sinclair.
		According to Zeno, Zichmni/Sinclair was intrigued by the tale of an Orkney fisherman who showed up 26 years after disappearing at sea, telling of a magnificent "new world" beyond "Engroneland" (Greenland) and "Estotiland" (Newfoundland).
		Indeed were it not for Antonio Zeno's correspondence habits, little or nothing would survive to indicate that such a voyage ever took place - certainly no European link to dovetail with the Glooscap legends.
