Ignacy Domeyko
Ignacy Domeyko or Domejko, pseudonym: Żegota is a Polish geologist, mineralogist, educator and founder of the University of Santiago, Chile. Domeyko spent most of his life and died in his adopted country, Chile. After the division of a deceased youth in Poland, Domeyko participated in the Polish-Russian War of 1830–31. After the Russian victory, he was exiled, spending part of his life in France before settling in Chile, a country of which he became a citizen. He spent approximately 50 years in Chile and made important contributions to the study of the geography, geology and mineralogy of this country. His observations on the plight of the poor miners and their rich exploiters had a profound effect on those who would continue to shape the Chilean labor movement. Domeyko is considered to be closely linked to a number of countries and therefore in 2002, when UNESCO celebrated a series of celebrations for his 200th anniversary, he was considered a “citizen of the world”.
