Re: [GRN] Goa's Past... Beyond Politics and Propaganda (Jason Pinto SDB)

[John de Figueiredo]

That is all well-known. My point is that Goa Velha (Govapuri) was not the capital of Yusuf Adil Shah as Fr. Jason Pinto states. The capital of Yusuf Adil Shah was Velha Goa.

He was one of the prominent kings of the Goa Kadambas. He made Govapuri (modern Goa Velha), his capital in A.D.1052. It is situated on the north bank of River Zuari in Tiswadi taluka of Goa.   On Thu, Apr 30, 2026 at 7:52 PM John de Figueiredo <johnde...@sbcglobal.net> wrote: This author states that Goa Velha (Govapuri) was the capital of Yusuf Adil Shah.

But can such a vast subject be explained simplistically? Certainly not. Such arguments often assume that pan-India once followed one religion, and other religions came only with invaders or colonisers. Indian history has always been more diverse and interconnected than what modern political slogans suggest.
