| Research Abstract |
The United Provinces of the Netherlands (Holland) prospered in the rise of the world economy, both in trade and sea shipping and in financial life of Europe, based by the development of industry, in the 17th century. The prosperity was characterized by carrying trade covering the whole Europe, including worldwide trade. The Netherlandish trade covered the Western Indies (America) and the East Indies (in other words, Asia including the Far Eastern Asia).
The Burlamacchi family, in particular Benjamin Burlamacchi, extended his economic activity to the East Indies, that is, Batavia and Bengal. He was born in Geneva in 1643. He decided to exchange his activities in Amsterdam for a career in the East Indies in the service of the Dutch East Indies Company. He left Holland in 1691 on board for Batavia. He died in 1967 at Bengal.
This archives reveal the contemporary economic situation and the many-sided economic activities of the Burlamacchi family and Benjamin Burlamacchi in the second haly of the 17th century.
