Would you have an answer? I am researching European cemeteries in India. The Portuguese were the first major European in India or Goa. Naturally they were the earliest to establish an organised place for burial or, cemetery, long before the British did. I am looking for information on the oldest Portuguese cemeteries in Goa in general. I have been unable to find anything useful on the internet, apart from the few scattered mention of Goa's cemeteries. But I would like to know more. Like, what their tombs look like, the inscriptions and stuff. Any books or sources regarding the same will also be useful. English will be better. So, could you help? So far my research tells me that back since the middle ages, it was normal custom to inter vip bodies beneath church, and common folks in the adjacent churchyard. That is why there are tablets or plaques on the floor. I have read that The Portuguese were the first to introduce separate burial grounds in India, but the author does not exactly say that, " this is the cemetery opened in that year, and this is the first ever Christian cemetery in India". While the Roman Catholic cemetery at Agra survives from 1611, Portuguese examples should date from the 1500s. Perhaps nothing survived. Some Portuguese cultural website told me those cemeteries used to be covered with a roof (a novelty) and a chapel used to be there. Perhaps nothing survived. Portuguese Goa fascinates me. But there aren't many books on that (I may be wrong). In fact, in my opinion, cemeteries are generally seen as a morbid thing and something to be avoided. That is why perhaps there aren't many books on cemeteries. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa | Frederick Noronha. 784 Saligao 403511 Goa 1 2 | WhatsApp +91 9822122436 Twitter @fn 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 | YouTube videos https://bit.ly/FNOnYouTube<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FFNOnYouTube&data=05%7C01%7C%7C442da048d55c4977077408da94a55e45%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637985735209996331%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=kfEoGg53RLargm8kLkm7TqZMVWiYTsfxP3HUFGzLklk%3D&reserved=0> 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 | Books.
