pirate ship whydah

Rare African jewelry, silver and gold treasure, cannons, flintlock pistols—these artifacts and more enliven the drawings, maps, and illustrations of life aboard a pirate ship in the early 18th century.

Artifacts from the Whydah (WIH-dah)—the only known pirate ship discovered in North America—will be on display at Explorers Hall from March 25 through June 20, 1999.
