Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard, modified his pirate flag (the Jolly Roger) by changing the traditional skull-and-crossbones into a horned skeleton. He added an hourglass to represent that time was running out for his victims, and a spear piercing a bleeding heart to warn that no mercy would be given.
