NamesakeCalaboza - Calaboza City Central Venezuela, also Calaboza, lies along the Guarico River 110 miles south southwest of Caracas on a piedmont plain between the mountains and the Llanos, founded in 1695.
Calaboza was formerly an administrative center. It gained prominence in the 1950’s as the headquarters of the Guarico River Reclamation Project, which is concerned with irrigation, flood
control, and the cattle industry. The city has benefited from the development of a vast rice-producing region and from the construction of modern transport facilities which link it to San
Fernando de Apure, the livestock center to the south and to San Juan de los Morros to the North.
