Sigismund Báthory died on 1613-03-27.
Sigismund I the Old was born on January 1, 1467 and died on April 1, 1548. This would have been 81 years old at the time of death or 543 years old today.
Andreas Cervin died in 1972.
Andreas Londos was born in 1786.
Sigismund III Vasa was born on 1566-06-20.
Andreas Sigismund Marggraf was born in 1709.
Zinc was first isolated from minerals in 1746 by Andreas Sigismund Marggraf in Brandenburg.
German chemist Andreas Sigismund Marggraf is normally given credit for discovering pure metallic zinc in 1746
Although zinc compounds have been used for at least 2,500 years in the production of brass, zinc wasn't recognized as a distinct element until much later. Metallic zinc was first produced in India sometime in the 1400s by heating the mineral calamine (ZnCO3) with wool. Zinc was rediscovered by Andreas Sigismund Marggraf in 1746 by heating calamine with charcoal. Today, most zinc is produced through the electrolysis of aqueous zinc sulfate (ZnSO4).

Andreas marggraf founded zinc in 1746.
Glucose was first discovered in the early 19th century by German chemist Andreas Sigismund Marggraf and further analyzed by French chemist Louis Pasteur. It was originally isolated from grapes and termed "grape sugar" due to its abundance in fruits.
Andreas Marggraf discovered the chemical element zinc in 1746. He isolated zinc by heating calamine (zinc carbonate) with carbon in a closed vessel, leading to the production of pure zinc. This marked an important advancement in the field of chemistry.
The element zinc has been used since ancient times, but its discovery as a distinct metal is attributed to Andreas Marggraf, a German chemist, in 1746. Marggraf was able to isolate zinc in its pure metallic form from a calamine ore.
Sigismund Zaremba died in 1915.
Sigismund Korybut died in 1435.
