Coquivacoa or Coquibacoa is an indigenous name for an area in north-west Venezuela - either the Gulf of Venezuela (as used by Colombian President Alfonso López Michelsen in 1974) or Lake Maracaibo (as others argue) or possibly the wider region. It may also be the name of an indigenous people itself, in particular the people fought by Ambrosius Ehinger before his 1529 establishment of Maracaibo; the name "Maracaibo" may derive from a Coquivacoa chieftain killed by Ehinger. This people may be related to (or even identical to) the Wayuu or the Caquetio people.

  • Coquivacoa o Coquibacoa es un nombre indígena para un área en el noroeste de Venezuela y el norte de Colombia, ya sea en el golfo de Venezuela (como lo usó el presidente colombiano, Alfonso López Michelsen en 1974)​​ o en el lago de Maracaibo (como otros argumentan)​​ o posiblemente una región más amplia. También puede ser el nombre de un pueblo indígena en sí mismo, en particular el pueblo que luchó contra Ambrosio Alfinger antes de la fundación del establecimiento de Maracaibo en 1529; el nombre "Maracaibo" puede derivar de un cacique coquivacoa asesinado por Alfinger. Este pueblo puede estar relacionado con (o incluso ser idéntica a) los wayú o caquetíos. (es)

  • Coquivacoa or Coquibacoa is an indigenous name for an area in north-west Venezuela - either the Gulf of Venezuela (as used by Colombian President Alfonso López Michelsen in 1974) or Lake Maracaibo (as others argue) or possibly the wider region.

This people may be related to (or even identical to) the Wayuu or the Caquetio people. The Spanish conquistador Alonso de Ojeda had been appointed Governor of Coquibacoa in 1501 (june, 10th), a position that only lasted a few months. He had applied the term Coquibacoa to the Guajira Peninsula, which Ojeda erroneously thought was an island. (en)
