Among the stories which Pigafetta relates, without entirely believing them, is one which is most curious. It concerns a gigantic bird the Epyornis, of which the bones and the enormous eggs were discovered in Madagascar about the year 1850.
It was probably the "epyornis maximus," for some eggs of this bird are still to be found in Madagascar. From this island Marco Polo went in a north-westerly direction to Zanzibar and the coast of Africa.
