Where can you find information on the 1798 Spanish Armada attack on the British settlement in the Bay of Honduras?
I myself cannot give details of the Battle of St. George's Caye as it is popularly known, but see Emory King's History of Belize (3 vols), paper, for details and further references. If I recall correctly, against the Spanish Armada the British and the settlers had 2 frigates and a few floating gut rafts. The Spanish had many deaths due to illness and withdrew leaving the battle outcome a draw. I believe O'Neil was the commander of the Spanish fleet, which then returned to Bacalar in what is now southern Yucatan. There is a contemporary account printed in a Jamaican newspaper which may be cited in King's work.

Was there a real Battle of St. George's Caye or is it just a fake?
There was a battle of St. George's Cay in 1798. There was no casualities reported and no sustained engagments. The battle ships did make moves to assume enagements however. The myth question has to do with the significance and cellebration of the Battle. The Battle was cellebrated until 100 years after. Then in the 1950's, the argument about it's significance was questioned. Was the Battle showining allegience to the British Empire? Was it showing the loyaluity of the enslaved? Or was it to be forged into a new cellebration called "National Day"? These are are the factors to consider in the mythical dimesions.
