Hello all
do apologise for the delayed response in thanking you for your very helpful
inputs. It's now clear that a variety of cloths of different value and
status symbols, along with rice, sugar and money  were given as salary and
rewards during this phase in Goa.  That is enough for my purpose which
concerns understanding the nature of help given by Indians in Albuquerque's
capture of Goa and early administration. Have already compiled a number of
names, and other details. Any help, suggestions, inputs would be most
welcome.
Thank you once again

Alan
