The Pirates Ships and Flags; this text an a simple sight isn´t so interesting, but if you read it since the beginning to the end you will see that it is more interesting than you think.

In the beginning of the text we can read a little about the pirates and how was their way to "job"; but like any other thing it´s necessary to have some instruments and in the case of the pirates their principal instruments were the ships.

So at first we can read about the Greek and Roman Ships, but the question was than the Roman pirates even when they weren´t naturally like the Greek´s they copy their designs and in the decorations and to give power at the ships they use similar methods.

Then we can see the Vikings, and like their reputation says the were very brave warriors and when they attacked some other pirates or population they haven´t mercy and robbed everything they saw in their way.

After they were the pirates of North Africa and China who had imposed ships that were known by his wonderful design and his great capacity of transport but more impressive was that even with that things they could still being pirates ships.

In the next page we can see an examples of how were the design of the diferent kind of ships around the world , and some information like what kind of things they carried on board or  a little explain of the weapons they had:

While the pirate ships were watching the coast, with a chart they could orient themselves and reach their destination, as did the sailors of antiquity. But losing sight of the shore needed navigational instruments that would guide; As the speed of your boat as essential for pirates, as well as having fast ships had to devote much of his time to conservation; especially in its early buccaneers also used boats and boats, boats, canoes, etc. Ships and boats and oars or sails very light to transport boats to pirates raiding, not being much tonnage vessels nor too big, and not wanting to carry too much weight, also avoided heavy guns. and in this link (http://capitaine_rouge.en.eresmas.com/info/banderas_piratas.html), find the types of flags, who belonged and their meaning

This text has called my attention, the forms and paintings that the ships have, such as the Greeks and Romans is one

of the wonderful because they have painted eyes, which wake up intrigue, and truth are not only presented in the book 

but there are others, for example one that I like is the Black Pearl from the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean".

The pirates are one of the biggest "populations" that have existed in the past, specially in the XII & XIII century; they were in their great moment, because among all the seas the pirates has robbed a lot of cargo ships, ships of the kings, and even they robbed populations that were located in the coast and were vulnerable to the attacks.
