Summary[edit]

Description
English: "They desired us to come on board, but seeing Death Head in the stern we refused it etc." - Thomas Knight's description of Blackbeard's pirate flag from their encounter on November 29, 1717.[1] It looks like Blackbeard's historically accurate flag wasn't the notorious horned skeleton but actually a much simpler flag, the white human skull on a black background.
