Spaniards and Portuguese in India and the Malay Archipelago, 1498-1580.

“Historical atlas”, William Shepherd, University of London Press, 3rd ed. 1924

by cartesdhistoire

Muslim merchants from Gujarat, based in Cambay, dominated maritime trade in the Indian Ocean in the 15th century, supported by Hindu and Jain financiers and an organized network of correspondents. The Malabar coast, a major pepper supplier, served as a hub for commercial interactions between Arab merchants from the Gulf of Aden or Oman and Chinese merchants – or their intermediaries – from Sumatra and Malacca. Muslim merchants primarily engaged in the spice trade.

The arrival of Vasco da Gama in Calicut in 1498 disrupted this system. In 1502, King Manuel entrusted him with commanding a second expedition aimed at eliminating all Muslim presence in the Indian Ocean. The Sultans of Gujarat and the Deccan sought assistance from a Mamluk fleet to counter the Portuguese, but it was defeated before Diu in 1509, paving the way for Portuguese conquests of Goa in 1510, Malacca in 1511, Hormuz in 1515, Diu in 1535, and Daman in 1539.

The Portuguese occupied the southwest coast of Ceylon from 1505 to access cinnamon, establishing a fort in Colombo in 1518. They controlled the north, west, and south coasts of the island, key areas for the cinnamon and precious stone trade.

The Moluccas were another target because the Banda Islands produced nutmeg, while Ternate and Tidore produced cloves. The Portuguese established privileged relations with the sultans of Ternate and Tidore, facilitating their settlement in Amboyna and Timor, despite the capture of Malacca from Sultan Mahmoud Shah.

The Portuguese monopoly endured until the emergence of the English East India Company and the Battle of Swally in 1612.

Meanwhile, Spain remained engaged in the spice race, aiming to connect America to the Moluccas and their spices. Following expeditions in 1525 (Loayza) and 1528 (Saavedra), Spain secured a definitive return route in 1565 (Urdaneta) and established settlements in the Philippines in 1571.

RAINGO FRÈRES [PARIS]

Table clock c.1823-4

Amboyna, ormolu

An astronomical gilt bronze and amboyna orrery and clock. Mounted on a circular base surmounted by four pillars with ormolu capitals and bases which support a circular top with the signs of the zodiac and an astronomical orrery. The gilded dial has the 12 hours represented by Roman numerals and the days of the week in an inner circle; blued steel moon hands with a stylised pointer for the days of the week. All mounted on a square plinth with cased circular ormolu feet.

The orrery makes one revolution a year and has a dial mounted over its winding square divided into 48 months and showing leap years and 1st, 2nd & 3rd common years. It revolves round a horizontal date dial with a pointer above the signs of the Zodiac annually; there is no mechanical correction for the leap years. The movement of the orrery moves around the sun and drives the earth and the moon in their correct orbits with a dial showing the age of the moon. The moon is running on its own track and is half silver and half black to represent how it looks in the night sky. The Earth has two curved pointers that denote sun rise and sun set as they occur around the world.

The clock movement is set between two of the four pillars that support the orrery above the clock. The clock movement has locking plate strike and strikes the hours on a single bell. The going train has a dead beat escapement with a grid iron compensated pendulum. In the motion work is the extra gearing to show the day of the week.

The orrery is driven by its own barrel and mainspring and is wound every four years. It is regulated by the clock below by a set of gears running up from the clock to control the orrery. There is a turning handle with gearing on the other end of its arbour that can be used to correct the orrery's position or show its functions.

The mutineer who became a Captain

On 11 October 1786, Peter Heywood joined the Royal Navy at the age of 14 as a Captain's Servant, a rank below Midshipman. When it became known that an expedition under the command of Lieutenant William Bligh was to sail to the South Seas to collect breadfruit plants in Tahiti and bring them to Jamaica, Heywood managed to sign on as an acting midshipman through the mediation of Richard Betham, both an acquaintance of the Heywoods and William Bligh's father-in-law. He took up his duties in August 1787. On 23 December 1787, the Bounty set sail from Spithead.

Captain Peter Heywood, 1772-1831, by John Simpson 1822 (x)

On 28 April 1789, there was a mutiny in which the 17-year-old Heywood remained on board. As a result, on 22 September in Tahiti, he and others abandoned the Bounty while the remaining crew left the island with the ship. Heywood married and later had his right leg tattooed according to country custom. On 23 March 1791, the frigate Pandora anchored off Tahiti with the voyage mission of tracking down and capturing the Bounty's mutineers. Heywood volunteered to go aboard the same day. Nevertheless, he was put in chains like all the other mutineers who were later apprehended. He survived the sinking of the Pandora, the malaria-infested Batavia and the long period of malnutrition on the transport to his trial in Portsmouth. The trial of the Bounty mutineers took place in Portsmouth on HMS Duke from 12 to 18 September 1792. Members of the 12-man court included Albemarle Bertie, whose wife was the daughter of a fourth cousin of Peter Heywood's father.

The laws of the Royal Navy stated that whoever acted neutrally in a mutiny was as guilty as the mutineers themselves, such behaviour was punishable by death. However, martial law provided for a royal pardon by which the death penalty could be waived. As a consequence of the inquest, the court in Heywood's case was unanimous in its recommendation.

On 27 October 1792, such a pardon arrived and Heywood was released the same day. Much to the chagrin of Bleigh, who tried everything to discredit Heywood and ensure that he would never again be able to gain a foothold in the Navy. However, Heywood's family was too powerful and He continued to serve in the Royal Navy and took part in the Battle of the 13th Prairie on board the Queen Charlotte at the start of the Revolutionary Wars. Against some opposition, he was eventually promoted to Lieutenant in 1795 and was stationed in India from 1796 to 1805. In 1799 he was given his first command of his own there with the brig Amboyna and was promoted to captain in 1803. Due to poor health and the death of his elder brother, he returned home in 1805. In 1806 he became captain on the Polyphemus, the flagship of Rear-Admiral Sir George Murray (1759-1819), which operated to protect trade routes in the South Atlantic. In 1808 he took part in the naval engagements of the Napoleonic Wars in the Bay of Biscay as commander of the ship-of-the-line Donegal, and served as commander of the frigate Nereus in the Mediterranean from 1809 to 1810, and again from 1810 to 1813 protecting the trade routes in the South Atlantic. His last command was the liner Montagu, with which he brought King Louis XVIII back to France in May 1814.

He finally retired in 1816 and in the same year married the widow Frances Joliffe, with whom he settled in Highgate near London. The marriage remained childless. He declined a commission in the Royal Navy on the Great Lakes with the rank of Commodore, which was offered to him in 1818. He finally died of a stroke in 1831 and was buried in the chapel of Highgate School.
