Times Of Israel: Burning Haman: The lost Purim tradition of India’s ancient Cochin Jewish community
Leonor Caldeira, a Jewish woman forced to convert to Christianity, fled to Cochin, India, from Portugal to escape the Inquisition. However, she was accused of reverting to Judaism and executed in 1561. The Cochin Jewish community had unique Purim traditions, including burning effigies of Haman.
Cochin's Jewish presence dates back to ancient times, with a peak population of 2,400 in 1948. The community was divided into Malabari and Paradesi Jews, who maintained separate identities. Although the tradition of burning effigies has faded, many descendants still celebrate Purim with traditional songs.
