A magician, sorcerer, or wise man, especially in ancient times or in reference to the three wise men who visited Jesus.
From Latin 'magus,' borrowed from Persian 'maguš' (priestly caste with mystical knowledge); the plural 'magi' gave us the famous three wise men.
The Magi were originally Persian priests, but became so famous as Christmas figures that their story merged Greek, Persian, and Christian traditions into something entirely new.
