Excerpt: ...to the locality of the town bearing that name at the present day. Excavations made within the last two years prove the antiquity of the site, and a coin of an Indian king, A.D. 160, and quite new, which was found with some Buddha relics in an ancient mound, seem to conclude the matter as to the great age of Sopara.1 What is the sum of all this? Surely it appears that Ophir was an emporium for Indian merchandise, that the Greek form of the name was identical with " Sopara," the name of the ancient capital and emporium for the western coast of India, in whose mountains are found all the undoubted Indian products introduced by the navy of ships of Tarshish. Hence we infer the identity of Ophir and Sopara. 1 See Sopara and Padana, Education Society's Press, Bombay. I (Some scholars think that Ophir was the name of a region in Southern and Western India.) India was thus well known to Palestine in the time of King Solomon. The Greeks from at least the second century of our era knew of the trade winds or monsoons. Our Blessed Lord was laid in the new tomb of Joseph enwrapped in a cnvSow, or Indian muslin. See later editions of Liddell and Scott's Great Lexicon There are further proofs of early European intercourse with India. In 1837 an iron box containing some hundreds of large gold coins, as fresh as if from the mint, were found in the bed of the Beypore river in Malabar. Col. W. H. Horsley, R.E., possessed several of these with the "image and superscription" of more than one Caesar. I had once the pleasure of handling them; the earliest bears date 2 B.C., the latest is about A.D. 50. Buried not later than A.D. 70 in the floor or vicinity of some rich merchant's house, the strong monsoon torrent washed away the bank of the...

Book excerpt: This elegantly written book explores the practice of Christianity among the Yakoba in the small region of Kerala. Susan Viswanathan uses the categories of time, space, architecture, and the body as a means of identifying the ways in which Hindu, Christian, and Syrian strands have been woven together to form a rich cultural tapestry in the region. The Yakoba, on which this study is based, are divided into two distinct groups--the Orthodox Syrians and the Jacobite Syrians. Viswanathan relates their on-going quarrel over ecclesiastical jurisdiction and the ways in which this quarrel affects Syrian Christian life and experience as a whole. She argues that people's interpretations of Christianity are a very powerful mode of cultural expression and societal flexibility.

Dr. Richards has been a missionary of the Church Missionary Society in Travancore since 1871. He was at different times Vice-Principal of the Society's College at Cottayam, Principal of the Cambridge Nicholson Theological and Training Institution at the same place, and Missionary-in-Charge of at least three of the Mission districts. He was one of the revisers of the Malayalam Bible, the chief reviser of the Prayer Book in the same language, and for these important services Archbishop Temple conferred on him the Lambeth D.D. He was also editor of the Travancore Diocesan Gazette. He has well studied the past history of the ancient Syrian Church of Malabar, and has been intimately cognizant of its various divisions and developments in recent years. All this I can say of the author, and I could say more were it necessary. Of his book I have no authority to speak--it speaks for itself. It is obviously based on first-hand knowledge, and contains much important and curious information. These ancient Churches of the East deserve our sympathy, and I trust the present work may awaken much interest in the Syrians of Travancore. They were for centuries a light in a dark place--a feeble light it is true, but one which we cannot but believe that it pleased God to use. Eugene Stock. March 7th, 1908.
