Al-Mahi Sadnajar: Difference between revisions

'''Al-Mahi Sadnajar''' (1529-1612) was a wealthy [[Alshar|Alshari]] merchant living in the Emirate of [[Zaclaria]] during the mid-14th and early 15th centuries. Sadnajar is best known for cultivating and selling truffles in Zaclaria and is credited as the "grandfather of truffles" as aristocrats from around the world offered to buy from his collection. By 1570, Sadnajar had built a commercial trade empire and had established trading contacts with the [[Occidental world]]. Sadnajar is often cited as the reason why the [[Truffle Races|Truffle Wars]] occurred, as he was the reason that the West was introduced to truffles.
