QUOTE
"Although barely known to the community of modern historians,
the Historical Archives of Goa are probably the best existing
archives in the non-western world and the records there cover
a large area of the world over a period of four hundred and
fifty years from the early sixteenth to the twentieth
century. These documents represent primarily the history of
the Portuguese State of India from 1515 to 1961, an area
which covered far more than what was known in 1961 as Goa,
Damao and Diu. For much of four centuries the viceroyalty of
Goa extended for all practical pruposes from the Cape of Goa
Hope to Nagasaki and Timor. Thus the documents collected in
Goa contain the history of many countries with which the
Portuguese came into contact. Among them the most prominent
are, in geographic order: Mozambique, Rhodesia, Zanzibar,
Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, the Arab countries, Persia, the
Mughal Empire...." In History in Africa, Vol 5 (1978)
