It was Marco Polo in the 12th century who, returning from Cathay, tried a dish of spaghetti with shrimp called spahi. Marco Polo decided to ask for the recipe and, once back in Venice, to spread it as widely as possible.

The original word spahi was then modified by the Italian language to spaghi, and from there it was a short step to calling them spaghetti.
