The skull and crossbones—the Jolly Roger—have long been associated with the “pirate brand” as a symbol of fear on the high seas. However, academics laud the frightening design as a beautiful experiment in communal hybrid branding, adding that pirates adopted a variation of this symbol to ease their aim to pillage.

Piracy has most certainly been a fixture of the open seas for as long as the Aegean and Adriatic trade routes have existed. The Roman Empire tolerated the Cilicians in the Mediterranean because of the slaves they supplied, and they were only reigned in 67 BCE when their presence became a threat to the Empire’s food supply.
