Wikipedia description:
Bartholomäus Ziegenbalg (24 June 1683 – 23 February 1719) was a German Lutheran missionary and the first Pietist missionary to India. Sent under the patronage of Frederick IV of Denmark, he co-founded the Danish-Halle Mission in Tranquebar (present-day Tharangambadi, Tamil Nadu) with Heinrich Plütschau in 1706. Ziegenbalg is noted for producing the first complete translation of the New Testament into Tamil, for introducing the printing press to Protestant mission work in India, and for promoting Tamil literature and education.
