Pirate History

Pirate History is about the ancient mythology of women pirates and all kinds of famous pirates. Read about these great characters - great inspiration for fairy art.

All the "troublemakers" or "heroic" people throughout history were referred to as explorers, warriors, merchants, or pirates.

There are people throughout history who have done evil and/or fantastic things. They have created reputations which have put them into the category of either being myths, fairy tales, or legends.

Their stories have been passed down through the generations. Some of these stories have been totally distorted to the point that they have been dismissed as fiction, or fairy tales.

More and more archaeological evidence has been substantiating some of these stories, and historians have searched and are still studying the evidence.

My point in writing this whole section is to introduce some of the characters. You already know from the fairy tale theme of this site, some of the "fictitious" characters, but thissection will discuss some of the more "real" stories.

The reason I have the urge to write this - is that these wild adventurous people inspire art.

Some were Mythology

Fantasy artists, classical artists and everything in between have been inspired to draw, paint, and sculpt these figures. They are romantic and fascinating.

These pages will inspire with truth and fiction.

It is generally accepted that there are 3 eras of human history.

The Classical Era or Antiquity

The Middle Ages or Medieval Times - from the fall of the Roman Empire, about the 5th century to the early modern era - 16th century

Modern Era from then to now.

You will notice that I have picked out characters that I find interesting.

Women Pirates

When investigating a pirate's legend you have to decide what is true and what is truth. Much of pirate mythology might not be true, but some of what is more true than you might think is the image of a lady pirate. Pirate women were more than just the typical pirate wench.

So to really get into the Pirate History of women pirates check out the link.

Vikings

Where did vikings come from?

Read this page on Viking Warriors and you will learn about these frightening characters that are already widely accepted as excellent subjects for art.

Famous Pirates

This sheet of pirate info will fascinate you - these are the typical caribean pirate. I love what we imagine from the movies. You will find famous pirates and info about their exploits.

Amazons

Okay, I am a little biased and want to show you how many females can be found in these pages, but I mean Amazons - I have to tell you about them. What images... can you imagine.

The interesting Amazon Warrior Women page will fascinate.

There are so many other characters in the Fairy realm, and I particularly love the unicorns, and have written pages about ancient unicorns, far east unicorns, medieval unicorns, and even than flying unicorn pegasus.

But don't forget about mermaids, merfolk, sea gods and selkies.
