The Order of Saint Benedict of Aviz (Portuguese: Ordem de São Bento de Avis) is an order of chivalry founded in Portugal in 1146.[1] Its symbol is a green cross fleury. The Order of Aviz had many links to the Templars, with some people like the Jesuit Gaspar Vilela and the priest João Machado having membership in both groups.[2]
History[edit | edit source]
In 1552, a contingent of Knights of the Order were dispatched to the Chinese island of Shangchuan under the command of Machado to track down his fellow Templar Francis Xavier and the Precursor box he carried. The knights killed Xavier and his entourage, taking the relic with them, and awaited exfiltration by way of a Portuguese merchant ship bound for Nagasaki, Japan the following morning, where Vilela awaited them. However, their ship was attacked by a junk, possibly belonging to the pirates that dwelled around Shangchuan or to the Ming military, and, at the same time, it was infiltrated by Assassins that managed to recover the box.[2]
