Historical Usage
Thomas the Apostle, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus, was born in Galilee around 1 A.D. and was given the name Judas son of James or Didymus, meaning 'twin'. After the resurrection of Jesus, Thomas is known for his doubt and disbelief, famously declaring, 'Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.' (John 20:25). Later, he traveled to India to spread the word of Jesus, where legend holds that he was martyred.
1 A.D.
Tomasz Zan, a Polish monk and bishop, was born around 1430. He was educated at the University of Krakow and became a Dominican friar. In 1478, he was appointed Bishop of Lviv (now in Ukraine). Tomasz was known for his efforts to strengthen the position of the Catholic Church in Poland during a time of religious turmoil. He played a significant role in the Council of Cracow in 1496, which established the Union of Krewo, an alliance between Poland and the Holy See. Tomasz died in 1508.
