Barozzi

The Barozzi were an aristocratic Venetian family. Members of the family became sailors, clerics and men of learning. They were lords of Santorini and Thirassia, and held military fiefs on the island of Crete. Members of the family were involved in the conspiracy of Bajamonte Tiepolo against the Doge of Venice in 1310.[1]
