Origins and History
According to the Vegno National Library, the Tiozzo Zucca Caenazzo family originated from the union between the philosopher Arturo Tiozzo Zucca and Maria Elena Caenazzo, who celebrated their marriage in 1570 AN. Both spouses belonged to small aristocratic families, the Tiozzo Zucca and the Caenazzo, who were quite influential in Toketi's political life and owned land in the Cossa countryside.
They sponsored artists, musicians, and intellectuals, providing them with the means to pursue their creative passions. The family's patronage enriched the cultural landscape of Cossa, fostering artistic expression, and contributing to the preservation of local heritage.
After the fall of the Gralan Empire, the family gradually lost power, but still retained some wealth and influence in Cossa.
