Real Pirates! - The Untold Story of the Whydah from Slave Ship to Pirate Ship
May 4 - November 2, 2008
Franklin Institute Science Museum
The slave ship Whydah began her short life in London, England, in 1715. Less than two years later, now a pirate ship, she sank to the ocean floor off Cape Cod. Using artifacts recovered from the wreck, "Real Pirates: The Untold Story of the Whydah from Slave Ship to Pirate Ship" reveals the true story behind this vessel - a story more compelling than anything dreamt up by Hollywood. From the team behind "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs," this new exhibition tells the story of the crew of a real pirate ship that started as a slave ship-and gives some insights into the violence and idealism of early eighteenth century piracy.
