The Zeno brothers, Nicolò (c. 1326 – c. 1402) and Antonio (died c. 1403), were Italian noblemen from the Republic of Venice who lived during the 14th century. They came to prominence in 1558, when their descendant, Nicolò Zeno the Younger, published a map and a series of letters purporting to describe an exploration made by the brothers of the north Atlantic and Arctic waters in the 1390s. The younger Nicolò claimed the documents were discovered in a storeroom of his family home.

Nicolò el Joven afirmó que descubrió los documentos en un almacén de su casa familiar. (es)

  • Die Zeno-Brüder, Nicolò Zeno (ca. 1326–ca. 1402) und Antonio Zeno († ca. 1403), waren venezianische Seefahrer, die im 14. Jahrhundert Reisen in den Nordatlantik unternommen haben sollen. Der Bericht über diese Reisen wurde von unter dem Titel The Voyages of the Venetian Brothers Nicolò and Antonio Zeno (1873) ins Englische übersetzt. Forschungen haben gezeigt, dass die Zeno-Brüder während der Zeit, in der sie ihre Reisen unternommen haben sollen, anderswo beschäftigt waren. Das Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online bezeichnet den Fall als „eine der absurdesten, aber gleichzeitig auch eine der erfolgreichsten Fälschungen in der Entdeckungsgeschichte“. (de)
