Writer and duelist Cyrano de Bergerac born as Savinien de Cyrano de Bergerac dies of unknown causes at the age of 36 in Sannois, Île-de-France, France.


It is inconclusive as to whether or not de Bergerac's death was a result of the injury from a falling wooden beam in 1654 while entering the house of his patron or an unspecified disease. There is also strong evidence to support the theory that his death was a result of a botched assassination attempt
