# Marco Polo returns to Venice as later told

Date: 1295

## The fact

About 1295 [Marco Polo](/people/marco-polo) is said to have returned to Venice. The public proof is later narrative plus a subsequent will, not a 1295 passenger list. Marco Polo's documented role is: He reappears in the Venetian story after the return via the Indian Ocean and Ilkhanid Iran. The 1298 prison book is a later Fact.

## Context

The escort of a bride to the Ilkhanate is a neighbouring received episode. Sharing the return with the uncles is required. The setting of Marco Polo returns to Venice as later told is the public file around 1295-01-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver edu-[digital-learning-access](/drivers/edu-digital-learning-access) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

The welfare reading used in this dossier is improving. That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself.
