[post_page_title]The legend of Blackbeard[/post_page_title]
The former English sailor Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard, is perhaps the most notorious pirate in history for his intimidating appearance and his treasures. His daring escapades include capturing a ship and renaming it Queen Anne’s Revenge, after the war he participated in. However, the ship hit a sandbar and sunk off the coast of Carolina, leaving behind thousands of artifacts that showcase The Golden Age of Piracy. In contrary to popular belief, Blackbeard avoided violence, relying on his intimidating image instead. As such, there are no accounts of him hurting his crewmen or his captives.
