Bombay(mumbai)Portuguese Maps from 1635 AD
When Portuguese ruled most of the west coast of India, they built
fortifications and settlements along the coast and few inland to protect
their trading ships and teritory. These maps show where the
fortifications were. Most or all of the fortifications are now in ruins
however there are some pictures on this site of those ruins and forts.
