The amount of misconceptions about pirates and eyepatches has facilitated the need for an entire video dedicated to exploring the subject. I will talk about eye injuries, patches, our cultural association of pirates and eyepatches, and finally, about the possibility of pirates using eyepatches to enhance their vision in the darkness. Period sources The Pirate's Own Book - Charles Ellms(normally I'd consider this a secondary source or modern source, since it discusses Golden Age Piracy 100 years after it ended, but in the case of this video I used it to describe events taking place 11 years before the book's publishing) The Buccaneers of America - Alexandre Exquemelin A Naval Dictionary of the Maritime - William Falconer Modern sources https://benersonlittle.com/2017/07/19... The Golden Age of Piracy - Benerson Little Under the Black Flag - David Cordingly Piratical Schemes and Contracts - E.T Fox https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyepatch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MythBus... Fictional sources These are cited to explain our cultural perception of pirates and eyepatches.
