notes:
Text describes the this island as having the first plantation in Brazil and describes the main town, Concepcion. The fort, Forte Orange, was built by the Dutch in 1631 and rebuilt by the Portuguese in 1654. The town (also known as Villa do Santo Cosmo de Garazu or Igarazu) is presently in the metropolitan area of Recife, but was in the seventeenth century a more established settlement than Olinda.
