Astonished to learn that in 883 Alfred the Great sent an emissary to India. https://www.caitlingreen.org/2019/04/king-alfred-and-india.html …

Christianity in India predates the 8th century, some reports mentioning presence in the 1st and 2nd century.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_in_India#Early_Christianity_in_India …
I knew about St. Thomas Christians. The surprising thing is that someone would be sent from Wessex to India in Alfred's time.
