Fakta

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Piracy has been around since the Bronze Age, when the Mediterranean was a hotbed for piratical activity. The word pirate comes from the ancient Greek word piero, which means to make an attempt.

#2 The geography of the sea, as well as political reasons, helped piracy take off in the ancient world. People did their best to thwart it, but it was hard to stop pirates who were already operating in small, isolated villages.

#3 The first known female pirate was Queen Artemisia I of Halicarnassus, who was also the queen of Caria. She was born in the fifth century BCE to a Carian father and a Cretan mother. She had a grown son, and thus had no reason to go into battle, but she did anyway.

#4 Piracy was more accepted in ancient times than it is today because it was more like intertribal warfare than nationless piracy. Acts of warfare, unlike acts of piracy, are generally accepted as legitimate in most times and countries.
