Egidio (or Egiel)
an early missionary, lived in A.D. 964. He was bishop of Tusculum (Frascati), and was sent to Poland about 972 by pope John XIII to propagate the Catholic religion and to regulate its exercises. Egidio sent for prelates from Germany, France, and Italy, and divided them among the new churches. He erected the first archbishoprics and seven bishoprics. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.
