Modern researchers trace its antecedents and theories about a hokes in the Vatican archives. It is attributed to saint Francis Xaverius, the Basque Jesuit missionary who converted hundreds of thousands of Hindus -under threat of colonial force, however- around Goa, the first and by far largest, heavily fortified Portuguese base on the Indian coast, end point of the early European (essentially commercial, not territorial) circumnavigation and colonization of Africa from Gibraltar to the Arabian Sea, prolonged to its goal, the rich spices trade of the Far East, which brought such immense wealth, especially trading with the then largest and richest Indian hinterland city (Vij... which perished in Muslim-Hindu religious strife) that Goa thrived to more inhabitants and churches then even Rome in the Renaissance age. The arm is attributed to the fabulous reliquary (started for the bones of a Georgian queen martyr shipped from Persia) of an Augustinian monastery, notably its chapter house, which is painstakingly tracked down during a 20 years long archaeological dig in Goa.
