The Jews of Kochi - going, going...(gone?)

None had heard of anti-Semitism, and there was no persecution then. The Hindu rulers of the Vijayanagar dynasty, two centuries before building the synagogue, were tolerant of all beliefs.
This explains why the Kochi Jews enjoyed such relative harmony and security among the majority Hindus, compared to their peers in Europe.
