Additional Evidence Links Shipwreck to Blackbeard

Record #:
15976
Abstract:
Wreckage discovered in 1996 was initially thought to be remains of the Queen Anne's Revenge. Further study by professional archaeologists in October 1997 has further substantiated this claim with discovery of fourteen large cannons thus far. Further fieldwork was planned to provide additional evidence that these remains in fact represent Blackbeard's ship lost in 1718.
