Each signing with his surname only ‘Casaubon’, ‘Michel’ and ‘Gilly’.Puducherry was the capital of the Indian district (and later also the larger union territory) of the same name, which was ruled by the French from 1673 to 1954.In 1719, John Law, a Scottish banker and General Financial Auditor of France, reorganized the big french trade companies into a single one named “Compagnie des Indes” (India Company) sometimes also called “Compagnie perpétuelle des Indes” (Everlasting India Company). The company used the same coat of arms as the Compagnie d’Occident which it had incorporated. The matching seal continued in use until the Compagnie des Indes was dissolved by Royal decree in 1769. This particular seal – showing two natives with bows standing either side of a central crest with recumbent man – was therefore in use in India between approx. 1719 and 1769. key words:
