Thanks for correcting that date. As I said before, I got 1541 from S. K. Pandya's article that I cited in my last post. I suspect he got that date from Anant Kakba Priolkar's book, "The Goan Inquisition", published in Bombay in 1961 because he has cited it as the source. > >What should make one of this letter in the National Archives of >Lisbon as against what you have quoted from Priolkar? > I think that is for you historians to figure out. I have tremendous admiration for the difficult work that you folks do. I can only lap up any scraps that you throw my way on these issues. The original source for my quote on Jeronimo Dias is an account entitled "Lendes de India" by Gaspar Correia, as cited by Priolkar.
