Tommaso Raggio (Template:Lang-lat) (1531—1599) was a 16th century Jesuit missionary.

Raggio joined Jesuit order in 1557 in Loreto.[2]

Raggio was Catholic missionary in Kotor in 1574—75.[3] Raggio was a poliglot who knew six foreign languages, including Croatian.[4] According to Miroslav Vanino, Raggio learned Croatian language in Kotor so he later worked for the benefit of Croats and other Balkan people.[5] Raggio emphasized that Jesuit presence in Kotor is very important because Kotor was very near Serbia while Kotor Bay goes deep into the territory populated with Orthodox people.[6]

In 1577 Raggio was one of two Jesuit envoys sent by Pope to Maronite patriarch.[7] In 1582 Raggio became a rector of Illyrian College in Loreto.[8] Between 1584 and 1587 Raggio accompanied Tommaso Pelessa at his missionary journeys into Ottoman held territories.[9]

At the beginning of 1594 Raggio and Aleksandar Komulović, as apostolic visitors,[10] began their diplomatic mission aimed to forge an anti-Ottoman coalition in support of the West during the Long Turkish War, principally in the Balkans and among the Slavs.[11] Raggio left this mission after one year and returned to Italy in 1595.[12]
