  • Queen Anne's Revenge Shipwreck Project Volume 5, Number 1 Spring 2005
    Update from the Queen Anne's Revenge Shipwreck Project Volume 5, Number 1 Spring 2005 Origins of the Queen Anne's Revenge Recently we had an inquiry from Nick Glenister in England asking about information that would help him build "a reasonably accurate model of the Queen Anne's Revenge". We asked Dave Moore, Curator of Nautical Archaeology at the North Carolina Maritime Museum, to reply. Remember that the QAR is believed to have originally been the French ship, Concorde, captured, refitted, and renamed by Blackbeard. Dave gave such a good response that we excerpted parts of it for your information. "The museum has actually had a hypothetical model constructed although no plans or drawings have been generated from that effort. We did quite a bit of research leading up to the construction and ended up using data from Jean Boudriot's treatise on the French merchant ship, Mercure.c.1730, as the primary framework for building the model. We figured we were probably safe building a model of an early 18th century French merchant ship. But there were two things wrong with that assumption that have come to light through additional research over the past couple of years. We now suspect the Concorde may have been built along the lines of a typical light French frigate, hence a bit different from our current model. Also, a document located in French archives strongly suggests that Blackbeard exchanged the ship, shortly after taking her, for a similar sized and armed English ship that may make all our assumptions mute. So, bottom line, we simply do not know what the QAR may have looked like apart from a general idea of her size, numerous guns, and three masts.

  • 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.

  • 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.

The group contacted archaeologists to ascertain the significance of the discovery, and it was soon determined to be a Spanish ship dating to the 1500’s.

  • Blackbeard's Beads
    BLACKBEARD’S BEADS: IDENTIFICATION AND INTERPRETATION OF THE BEADS RECOVERED FROM THE SHIPWRECK 31CR314 QUEEN ANNE’S REVENGE by Kimberly A. Urban December 2017 Director of Thesis: Charles R. Ewen, PhD Major Department: Anthropology Glass trade beads are one of the most notable artifacts of the Transatlantic Slave Trade and played an important role in African culture spiritually, metaphysically, and historically. Since its discovery in 1996, 798 glass beads have been recovered from the Queen Anne’s Revenge Shipwreck. This thesis seeks to identify the beads recovered from the Queen Anne’s Revenge shipwreck and interpret their relationship to the ship and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. The thesis opens with the history of the slave trade, specifically the role of the French, as well as an historical overview of Blackbeard, the Queen Anne’s Revenge, and of bead manufacture. Following the archaeology and recovery of the shipwreck along with its conservation program and previous research conducted on the Queen Anne’s Revenge bead assemblage is discussed. Other contemporaneous archaeological sites, both terrestrial and maritime, are presented to compare the Queen Anne’s Revenge bead assemblage to other sites. This research is designed to provide data on the types of beads recovered from the Queen Anne’s Revenge shipwreck for both conservators at the Queen Anne’s Revenge Conservation Laboratory and future archaeologists. This research provides insight into the ship’s former role as a slaver and addresses the ship’s link between Africa and the slave trade.
