Note 1 — Letter from Felipe IV to Tavora

The name Manados (now Menado) was applied to a province (now called Minahasa) in the northernmost peninsula of Celebes; see Colin’s description of it in his Labor evangélica (ed. 1663), pp. 109, 110. Jesuit missions were early established there (Colin, ut supra, p. 820), from the island of Siao.
