Caucagua, Miranda, Venezuela
Description
Caucagua is a city in Miranda state, capital of the Acevedo municipality and the heart of the Barlovento subregion. Its name, of Cumanagoto origin, evokes the idea of "impetuous waters," and its history dates back to the late 17th century, when it was born as Valle de Araguata before being refounded under the name Caucagua in 1752. Set at a crossroads between Caracas, the east of the country and the rest of Miranda, Caucagua has for centuries been a natural connection point and a highly fertile agricultural hub, renowned for the cacao production that defines the entire Barlovento area.
The Acevedo municipality, whose capital is Caucagua, is the largest in Miranda state, with an area of about 2,086 km², and it honors General Miguel Acevedo, a prominent 19th-century military and political figure (Wikipedia, «Municipio Acevedo», accessed 2026). Around the year 2000, Caucagua's population was estimated at some 35,000 inhabitants, supported by an economy tied to agriculture, commerce and its privileged position as a link between regions.
