Portuguese scholar; curator of the royal archives in Torre do Tombe, at Lisbon; died in that city Aug. 11, 1649. He was the author of a work defending the Maranos, entitled "Discurso si es Util, y Justo, Desterrar de los Reinos de Portugal a los Christianos-Nuevos, Convencidos do Judaismo por el Tribunal de S. Officio, y Reconciliados por el con Sus Familias, y Aquellos Contra los Quales ay Prueba Bastante para Destierro." It is still in manuscript.
