Nueva Andalucia. Certified copies of MSS. Colonial Archives, Seville, during 16th and 17th centuries, now before the Commission. 62 threatened by the Dutch and Carib raiders, the Home Government was urged to provide for an inspection of the most important ports, and to fortify the island itself against possible attack. It was also recommended that an additional fort be established at the narrowest part of the Orinoco, since the Dutch were "said to be" already "near the entrance of said river. "... But why this should be gravely cited 1 to show that the Spaniards had already "aban- doned, " or were about to "abandon, " or were even contem- plating the abandonment of the Orinoco delta, it is difficult to conjecture. The Carib Indians had been often incited to insurrection by the Dutch and English during the eighty years' war which ended in the general peace of Westphalia. The Dutch, and afterwards the English, made annual presents to these savage tribes, sought alliances with them against Spain, and finally pretended to have established some sort of Protectorate over them.
