Roger Lee de Jesus, our postdoc researcher, was in Goa (India) in August 2023, conducting archival work at the Department of Archives of the Directorate of Archives and Archaeology.
On the 23rd of August, he also delivered a paper at the local delegation of the Fundação Oriente, titled The territorialization of the Portuguese Empire in Asia: the case of Goa (16th century).
Additionally, he had the pleasure of being interviewed by the esteemed local newspaper, O Heraldo. As one of the oldest newspapers in Goa, this interview highlights the significance of the IberLAND project and its relevance to the local community and broader academic discourse.
