Pirate Bandana

Pirate Bandana meaning

1. Pirate bandana and skull: symbolic

Among pirates the skull was very popular.

It was mostly represented by a skull devoid of flesh and dominated by two large, wide-open orbits that accentuated its frightening side.

The skull is frightening: its sight irreparably provokes a deaf anxiety tinged with questions!

Historically, the message conveyed by the skull, and therefore its meaning, was clear: a human skull surmounting two crossed shins which signified the presence of imminent danger and therefore death to come.

Thus was created the legend of the sea pirates.

2. Pirate flag

The pirates who scoured the seas in antiquity were not mistaken in choosing the skull and crossbones as their symbol.

The objective of the Pirate Flag? To intimidate the adversary and to convey a message of fear! When a ship had the misfortune of crossing their boat on which the black background flag was hoisted, it immediately knew what to expect.

Nowadays, the pirate flag is proudly displayed on clothing, including bandanas.

3. Bandana: Useful for pirates

There are several theories about the usefulness of wearing a bandana for pirates.

The main one would be simply to protect oneself from the sun which can hit very hard on the open sea.

Some claim that it was also to avoid getting sweat in their eyes, or to hold their long hair in place and avoid being embarrassed, especially in the middle of a boarding!
