I've been to the Whydah Pirate Museum. Worth the trip if you are up that way.

Great article. I'm always fascinated by these types of stories.

Thank you for sharing.

Cool article. But how did they get Bellamy's DNA, from an ancestor of his?

"That bone was identified as a human male with general ties to the Eastern Mediterranean area," author Casey Sherman said in the statement. "These newly found skeletal remains may finally lead us to Bellamy as we now have his DNA."
