Information
------------------------------

Blackbeard was the most feared and infamous pirate of his day. In the early eighteenth century, the former British privateer trolled the shipping lanes of the Atlantic, capturing, plundering and terrorizing all vessels in his path. From the deck of his flagship, the Queen Anne's Revenge, he commanded the seas and inspired fear in all who crossed his path. In 1717, he even blockaded the city of Charleston, cutting her off from the world and threatening to strangle her budding tobacco economy.
But soon after, he ran his flagship aground off the coast of North Carolina, and had to abandon her to the sea. Not long after, he was caught, executed and beheaded by a government posse.
300 years later, a group of marine archaeologists have discovered the remains of the Queen Anne's Revenge, and their careful preservation and analysis of the remains--including cannons, guns, anchors, and even gold--are helping to solve the biggest mystery about Blackbeard's rein: Did he run his ship aground by accident, or was the grounding a carefully laid plot to double cross his own men and steal all their treasure for himself?
