The Battle of Machias (August 13–14, 1777) was an amphibious assault on the Massachusetts town of Machias (in present-day eastern Maine) by British forces during the American Revolutionary War. Local militia aided by Indian allies successfully prevented British troops from landing. The raid, led by Commodore Sir George Collier, was executed in an attempt to head off a planned second assault on Fort Cumberland, which had been besieged in November 1776. The British forces landed below Machias, seized a ship, and raided a storehouse.

rdfs:comment	第二次マチャイアスの海戦（英: Battle of Machias (1777)）は、アメリカ独立戦争の1777年8月13日から14日に起こったイギリス軍の水陸共同作戦による襲撃である。当時はマサチューセッツ湾植民地、現在はメイン州となっているマチャイアスの港付近で戦いが起こり、地元民兵と同盟インディアンがイギリス軍の上陸を阻止した。イギリス海軍ジョージ・コリアー海軍代将が率いたこの襲撃は、1776年11月に包囲されたノバスコシアのカンバーランド砦に対して2回目の攻撃を阻止するために実行された。イギリス軍はマチャイアスの下流で上陸し、船舶1隻を捕獲し、倉庫を襲撃した。この襲撃の成果については論議が定まっていない。コリアーはカンバーランド砦に対する攻撃のための軍需物資を破壊したことで成功だと主張し（そのような物資はマチャイアスに届けられていなかった）、守備側はマチャイアス占領を阻止し、イギリス軍を撃退したと主張した。 (ja) The Battle of Machias (August 13–14, 1777) was an amphibious assault on the Massachusetts town of Machias (in present-day eastern Maine) by British forces during the American Revolutionary War.
