Summary 

*Please note this session will only be available to watch live.*

There may have been early settlement of Jews in Goa, but there certainly 
was a Jewish colony there under the Portuguese. However, the Portuguese set 
up an Inquisition in Goa and tried many Jews and conversos or New 
Christians. They kept alive Garcia de Orta (1501-68), the physician of the 
king and a famous botanist, but burned his sister on the stake. By the 18th 
century the community of Jews had disappeared but their memory lingered on 
in some families to this day.
