Battle of Ponza (1435)
The Naval battle of Ponza was fought in early August 1435, when the Duke of Milan dispatched a Genoese fleet, in order to relief the town of Gaeta, which was currently being besieged by the King of Aragon.
==Conflict==
Joan II, Queen of Naples, died on the 2nd of February 1435,〔 and by her will bestowed Rene d'Anjou with the crown of Naples.〔 However, Alfonso, king of Aragon and Sicily, whom Queen Joan II had primarily adopted, claimed the succession, on the ground of this first adoption.〔 Thus the successionist war between the House of Anjou and the House of Aragon over the Kingdom of Naples ensued.〔〔
At this critical moment Rene d'Anjou was currently imprisoned in the Duchy of Burgundy and Alfonso of Aragon lost no time in stirring up his partisans in the Kingdom of Naples, whilst he himself sailed from Sicily with a large fleet to besiege Gaeta.〔
Gaeta itself was garrisoned by the Genoese〔 who shortly after Queen Joan's death dispatched ''Francesco Spinola'' with 800 infantry.〔〔 The Duke of Milan ''(to whom the Republic of Genoa had lately submitted)''〔 sided with the House of Anjou and dispatched a Genoese fleet〔 in July under Biagio Assereto in order to relief Gaeta.〔 Alfonso immediately sailed against the Genoese fleet〔 with superior numbers.〔 The two fleets met near the island of Ponza and after a long and gallant conflict,〔 which lasted for ten hours,〔 the Genoese were completely victorious.〔 The royal galley of Aragon was compelled to strike,〔 and Alfonso V, King of Aragon was captured.〔
