The history of the name Balthazar.
Balthazar('King of Treasures') is the traditional name of one of the Three Wise Men, the other two being Melchior ('King of Light') and Gaspar ('The White One'). Many scholars nowadays tend to characterize the trio not as kings but rather as Zoroastrian priests, while others speculate that at least one of them was a king -- namely Azes II of Bactria who reigned from 35 BC to 10 AD. Whatever their occupations, legend and German tourist brochures have it that the Three Wise Men -- or at the very least their skulls -- lie buried in a golden shrine at Cologne Cathedral.
