The Mangalore arrived in Suriname on 8 November 1873 with a further group of Hindostani workers. Their registration numbers became an enduring administrative identity, and records continued to be updated with work, family, and life events. The surviving official list makes the flow visible, while also reminding us that the archive’s categories were imposed by a colonial labor regime.
