| Abstract | The objective of this article is to analyze some aspects of the Cartagena de Indias artillery during the 18th century. Among these, the realization of different experiments on the iron cannons allowed to overcome the damages generated by the climate through the use of a new varnish. In addition, a study is included on the contributions that the Spanish military made to improve the artillery of said city. To do this, the cannon models will be examined, studying the relationship between engineering and artillery. The mechanisms of manufacture and import of armament from the Iberian Peninsula to America will also be studied. |
