Full title, "Archaeologists Discover Possible Burial Site of the World's Richest Pirate".
Monday, February 19, after months of excavation, archaeologists at the Whydah Pirate Museum extracted the femur - a bone of the upper leg - from a large concretion. The bone could possibly belong to Captain Samuel "Black Sam" Bellamy. The femur has been sent out for DNA testing and we hope to have results back in about six weeks.

Not going to click on Newsweak, but...
Who buried the dead pirates - other pirates? How was the burial site discovered - was is a secret location - or just forgotten?

"... he accumulated an estimated $120 million in today's money, making him the top-earning pirate of all-time ..." Bull crap! The average Senator or Congressman of today is many times wealthier than that!

Wow. Interesting fellow, this Bellamy.
I am not very well read on pirates. I just got back to the thread after researching via the web.
Pretty cool stuff. Thank you sir.
And if you will, please add me to the ping list. Thanks again.
