Persons who should be on Chocolate Frog Cards

[alshainofthenorth]

Hi, group,

(I wasn't sure if a subject like this is on-topic on the main list, so
I'll try it out here.)

The recent history discussion plus checking out the Chocolate Frog
Card wizards and witches in the Harry Potter Lexicon got me thinking
about JKR's use of real people in the history of the wizarding world
(e.g. Nicolas Flamel and Paracelsus). I think it's very inspiring
(would love to see some fanfics about Nicolas Flamel and the
Philosophers' Stone) and I can't help thinking that there might be
quite a few more even if the Muggle world hasn't realised that they
had magical talent.

So here's my question to you: Are there any other historic persons you
wouldn't be surprised to find in Ron Weasley's 500-card collection of
Famous Witches and Wizards? (Some non-Europeans would be great)

Here's one suggestion of mine: Roger Bacon (1214-1294), scholar and
friar who made gunpowder, studied alchemy, predicted airplanes and
steam engines two hundred years before Lionardo da Vinci and
frequently got into trouble with his Franciscan superiors.
