  • The Price of Amity: of Wrecking, Piracy, and the Tragic Loss of the 1750 Spanish Treasure Fleet
    The Price of Amity: Of Wrecking, Piracy, and the Tragic Loss of the 1750 Spanish Treasure Fleet Donald G. Shomette La flotte de trésor espagnole navigant de La Havane vers l'Espagne en août 1750 a été prise dans un ouragan et a échoué sur les bancs extérieures de la Virginie, du Maryland et des Carolinas. En dépit des hostilités alors récentes et prolongées entre l'Espagne et l'Angleterre, 1739-48, les gouvernements coloniaux britanniques ont tenté d'aider les Espagnols à sauver leurs navires et à protéger leurs cargaisons. Ces gouvernements, cependant, se sont trouvés impuissants face aux “naufrageurs” rapaces à terre et les pirates en mer qui ont emporté la plus grande partie du trésor et de la cargaison de grande valeur. The Spanish treasure fleet of 1750 sailed from Havana late in August of that year into uncertain waters. The hurricane season was at hand, and there was little reason for confidence in the nominal state of peace with England, whose seamen had for two centuries preyed on the treasure ships. The bloody four-year conflict known in Europe as the War of Austrian Succession and in the Americas as King George's War had been finally concluded with the signing of the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle only in October 1748 by the wearied principal combatants, France and Spain, which had been aligned against England. England and Spain, in fact, had been at war since 1739. Like many such contests between great empires throughout history, the initial Anglo-Spanish conflict and the larger war of 1744-48 had ended in little more than a draw.

  • Explore the British Virgin Islands
    JUST ENOUGH bCHARTERl u • BROKEewaterRAGE • TRAINING • CREW • MANAGEMENT As a yacht charter destination, the BVIs are almost impossible to beat, with over 50 pretty islands scattered like lush gems across the turquoise sea. The islands are located within a short distance of each other, making cruising effortless, and the BVIs offer a multitude of stunning anchorages as well as glamorous superyacht marinas. Providing excellent shelter and calm, crystal clear seas, the BVIs also receive the Caribbean trade winds, making the archipelago a famously good sailing ground as well as a great place for thrilling water sports like kitesurfing. On a BVIs yacht charter, there is something for everyone. Dive the wreck of the HMS Rhone off Salt Beach, one of the great dives of the Caribbean, or snorkel through the Virgin Gorda Baths, where huge granite boulders create a glimmering playground of sapphire lagoons and ethereal grottos. Hike up to Virgin Gorda Peak for breath-taking views of the archipelago, or horse ride along a beach in Tortola, coconuts washing up on the shore. Strap on your dive tank and make your way along the unforgettable Wreck Alley, where airplanes and boats have been submerged for divers, or just drink coconuts and read books in a hammock in dreamy Trunk Bay. The BVIs are incredibly, deeply peaceful, with no Jet Skis allowed to break the tranquil vibe of lapping sea and afternoon breezes. On the glorious coral atoll of Anegada, explore the 16 miles of powder soft beaches, and watch flamingos stalk across the flats, bright pink against sand and sky.

  • Going on the Account: Examining Golden Age Pirates As a Distinct
    GOING ON THE ACCOUNT: EXAMINING GOLDEN AGE PIRATES AS A DISTINCT CULTURE THROUGH ARTIFACT PATTERNING by Courtney E. Page December, 2014 Director of Thesis: Dr. Charles R. Ewen Major Department: Anthropology Pirates of the Golden Age (1650-1726) have become the stuff of legend. The way they looked and acted has been variously recorded through the centuries, slowly morphing them into the pirates of today’s fiction. Yet, many of the behaviors that create these images do not preserve in the archaeological environment and are just not good indicators of a pirate. Piracy is an illegal act and as a physical activity, does not survive directly in the archaeological record, making it difficult to study pirates as a distinct maritime culture. This thesis examines the use of artifact patterning to illuminate behavioral differences between pirates and other sailors. A framework for a model reflecting the patterns of artifacts found on pirate shipwrecks is presented. Artifacts from two early eighteenth century British pirate wrecks, Queen Anne’s Revenge (1718) and Whydah (1717) were categorized into five groups reflecting behavior onboard the ship, and frequencies for each group within each assemblage were obtained. The same was done for a British Naval vessel, HMS Invincible (1758), and a merchant vessel, the slaver Henrietta Marie (1699) for comparative purposes. There are not enough data at this time to predict a “pirate pattern” for identifying pirates archaeologically, and many uncontrollable factors negatively impact the data that are available, making a study of artifact frequencies difficult. This research does, however, help to reveal avenues of further study for describing this intriguing sub-culture.

    Religion, Archaeology, and Social Relations: A Study of the Practice of Quakerism and Caribbean Slavery in the Eighteenth-Century British Virgin Islands By John Martin Chenoweth A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Laurie A. Wilkie Professor Rosemary A. Joyce Professor Kent G. Lightfoot Professor Ethan Shagan Spring 2011 Copyright 2011 by John Martin Chenoweth Abstract Religion, Archaeology, and Social Relations: A Study of the Practice of Quakerism and Caribbean Slavery in the Eighteenth-Century British Virgin Islands By John Martin Chenoweth Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Berkeley Professor Laurie A. Wilkie, Chair This dissertation considers the social construction and negotiation of religion in a particular place and time: a small, relatively poor cotton plantation in the British Virgin Islands in the eighteenth century. Due to a rich record of archival documents and historical writings, we know that religion, race, class, and other forces of identification were at play on this site, but the specifics of many of the players—their relationships and worldviews—do not survive in texts. To reconstruct these, three seasons of archaeological work were initiated on the site, the home of the Lettsom family and the enslaved people they held. What makes this site unique to the region is the association with known members of the Religious Society of Friends, better known as “Quakers.” The owners, Mary and Edward Lettsom were members of a small group of Quakers which formed from the local planter population about 1740, and both professed Quaker values for the rest of their lives.
