Zygmunt Gloger (3 November 1845 – 16 August 1910) was a Polish historian, archaeologist, geographer and ethnographer, bearer of the Wilczekosy coat of arms.
Gloger founded the precursor of modern and widely popular Polish Tourist and Sightseeing Society (PTTK).
[1] He was a son of engineer Jan Gloger [pl] and Michalina née Wojno.
[2] Under the professional influence of historians and geographers Julian Bartoszewicz as well as Józef Ignacy Krasicki, and later Wincenty Pol and Oskar Kolberg, Gloger voyaged through Poland and Lithuania under the foreign Partitions, and corresponded with many European scholars.
His life's work was the Encyklopedia staropolska ilustrowana (1900-1903), still considered a useful and important book about culture of Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.
