400 Prize Ships. The Pirate Code. “A Merry Life and a Short One.” The Great Pirate- Black Bart Roberts Bartholomew Roberts — better known as Black Bart — didn’t set out to be a pirate.

Anne Bonny — the pirate who wrote her own code. The story of Anne Bonny is hard to capture in a short post… Most of the lore and legend about her stems from the multiple editions of A General History of the Pyrates, by Captain Charles Johnson.

Marx’s dives uncovered streets and foundations frozen in time, along with pipes, pottery
