Considering the participation of American privateers in the nascent formation of the Venezuelan and then Colombian navy, we have considered it pertinent to assess the scope of the participation of American nationals based on the hypothesis that there was a direct and indirect political intention to help the Colombian independence cause. To do this, considering the limited existence of sources on the subject, we are going to examine their performance in the battle of Isla Larga (Puerto Cabello) on May 1, 1823 and then we will analyze their participation as members of the Colombian national squad that forced the Maracaibo bar and defeated the royalist naval forces on July 24, 1823, impacting naval operations in the Caribbean Sea. A la par de las operaciones navales que se estaban realizando entre Puerto Cabello y Maracaibo en el año 1823, dentro del marco de la guerra de independencia al norte de Suramérica, Estados Unidos, el Reino Unido y Francia estaban realizando operaciones “antipiratería” principalmente contra nacionales españoles en Cuba y Puerto Rico, constituyendo el momento de mayor intensidad el mes de abril de ese año. Teniendo presente la participación de corsarios estadounidenses en la naciente conformación de la marina de guerra venezolana y luego colombiana, hemos considerado pertinente valorar el alcance de la participación de nacionales estadounidenses a partir de la hipótesis de que hubo una intencionalidad política directa e indirecta de ayudar a la causa independentista colombiana. Para ello, teniendo en cuenta la escasa existencia de fuentes sobre el tema, vamos a examinar su actuación en el combate de isla Larga (Puerto Cabello) el 1 de mayo de 1823 y, seguidamente, analizaremos su participación como integrantes de la escuadra nacional colombiana que forzó la barra de Maracaibo y derrotó a las fuerzas navales realistas el 24 de julio de 1823, repercutiendo en las operaciones navales en el mar Caribe. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/historiayguerra/article/view/14058 10.34096/hyg.n5.14058 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/historiayguerra/article/view/14058/12433 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/historiayguerra/article/view/14058/12464 Derechos de autor 2024 Edgar Enrique Blanco Carrero Historia & Guerra; No. 5 (2024): January-June; 70-89 Historia & Guerra; Núm. 5 (2024): Enero-Junio; 70-89 2796-8650 Máquina de guerra Aparato de captura Corso Lago de Maracaibo Puerto Cabello War Machine Capture apparatus Privateering Maracaibo Lake Cabello Port United States Participation in the Lake Maracaibo Naval Campaign (May-July 1823) Participación estadounidense en la campaña naval del lago de Maracaibo (mayo-julio 1823) info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Articles Artículos Artigos https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=histogue&d=14058_oai
