Summary
editDescription20191123 Guyana 0228 Kyk Over Al Island sRGB (49295897097).jpg | An entrance gate is all that remains of the small, star-shaped Fort Kyk-Over-Al that was built by the Dutch in 1616. Believed to be the smallest fort ever built by the Dutch, it was part of a trading post on a 1.5-acre island in the Mazaruni River where it’s met by the Cuyuni River just before joining the Essequibo River. Originally named Fort ter Hoogen after a Dutch businessman, it was soon renamed Kyk-Over-Al which comes from the Dutch for “see over all.” In 1665 the British occupied the fort but only briefly until the Dutch recaptured it. An attack by French privateers in 1708 was successfully repulsed as was an attack by a combined force of French and Spanish buccaneers in 1712. In 1739 the fort was abandoned to be superseded by the bigger Fort Zeelandia on a large island in the mouth of the Essequibo River. |
