bailo Bailo was the representative of Venice at Constantinople during the Byzantine Empire. His office was quite important, that's why only members of the venetien aristocracry were appointed at it. The bailo was a man of particular education and his diplomatic presence at the Sublime Port was decisive. The reports of the bailos' and their mention in the venetian administration constitute important documents which are often true handbooks of political, military and financial science and therefore important sources for the modern historian.
