Re: Philipp von Hutten

Hallo Jule,

ich hoffe, dass Dir die nachfolgenden Informationen bereits etwas weiterhelfen. Leider ist über Philipp von Hutten online nur sehr wenig Ausführliches verfügbar, aber es gibt sehr informative Bücher zu dem Thema:

„.....Federmann's failure to locate either the strait to Asia or the mythical El Dorado left the way open for another German expedition. Philipp von Hutten, Coro governor in 1540, had accompanted Hohermuth in 1534 and believed that the kingdom lay southeast nf that route. Hutten left Coro in August 1541 with 550 men. He took the now familiar itinerary through Barquisimeto, the llanos of Apure, Arauca, and Casanare, to arrive at Nuestra Senora de la Fragua. Here he intended to camp for the winter, but when the Indians told him that Hernan Perez de Quesada, the brother of Gonzalo Jimenez de Quesada, had recently been through the town on the same quest, Hutten threw caution to the wind and set out immediately on Perez's trail to the south. For the next year he wandered through the jungles of Caqueta, a journey from nowhere to nowhere, conducted through difficult terrain made virtually impassable by the heavy rains.

When Hutten finally struggled back to La Fragua the Indians convinced him that El Dorado was to the southeast in the Vaupes region and that its capital was a city called Macatoa. With forty of his strongest men he crossed the Guaviare and found the town, which turned out to be of respectable size but notably lacking in golden houses The Macatoans, however, insisted that El Dorado was the capital of their neighbors, the Omagua. They led Hutten into Omagua territory, and a climb up a hill overlooking the city in question convinced him that the prize was within his grasp. It was so large that he could not see its farthest end. The streets were straight, the houses well constructed, and in the central plaza stood a building of great height. Hutten impetuously charged the city, but the Omagua repulsed the attack, wounding him and many others. Realizing his vulnerability, Hutten resolved to go back to Coro to enlist reinforcements. Bad news awaited him at La Fragua, for the Indians reported that a Spanish rebel, Juan de Carvajal, had seized power in Coro. Hutten took precautions, but on reaching the coast fell into the hands of Carvajal, who had him beheaded in 1546.

Hutten's trek was the last sponsored by the Welsers, who were now convinced that there was no South Sea passage in the interior. Nevertheless his discovery of the Omagua city reinforced belief in El Dorado and diverted the future search for it by Venezuelan-based Spaniards from the llanos to northwestern Brazil and the headwaters of the Negro River....“
