date, the Julian calendar was used and corresponded to December 25, 1642, day of
the Navidad.1 The birth was premature and born apparently so small that no one
thought he would have to live long. His life was in danger for at least one week. He
was baptized on January 1, 1643, January 12 on the Gregorian calendar

3. Born in 1452 in the Tuscan village of Vinci, the illegitimate son of a peasant woman, Caterina (who married
soon after with a craftsman in the region), and Ser Piero, a wealthy Florentine notary. Italy was then a

princes or the pope.
