Rabban bar Sauma

[edit]
Rabban Bar Sauma travelled from Beijing in the East, to Rome, Paris and Bordeaux in the West, meeting with the major rulers of the period.

Rabban Bar Sauma (Chinese:拉賓掃務瑪, around 1230-1294, fl. 12801288), was a diplomat from Mongol China and probably the first man from China to visit France. He was born in Beijing, and was of Ongut origin. He communicated with Western rulers such as Kings Philip IV of France and Edward I of England. Bar Sauma's written account of his journeys is of unique interest, as it gives a picture of medieval Europe at the close of the Crusading period, painted by a keenly intelligent, broadminded and statesmanlike observer. His travels occurred prior to the return of Marco Polo to Europe, and give a reverse viewpoint of the East looking to the West. Could somebody mention this in the article?
