In science, a yellow label indicates a medium hazard level.
It was a reminder of our mortality back in a time when death was an all too common part of everyone's short lives.
Alritey then, a sword thru a skull and crossbones can mean a lot of different things, but let's take them in order. 1. Definitely it could be a PIRATE thing, many pirates made up their own flags with their favorite icons on them....They were almost always put on a black background because a black flag was a sign of 'NO QUARTER'... 2. With the sword going thru the skull and crossbones it could be a sign of anti-pirates.....pirate hunters were known to chase down the criminals for the reward.... 3. the first and last definition of the skull and crossbones is 'DANGER' and of course, 'POISON'......In ancient times a cross roads might be marked with a skull and cross bones to let travelers be wary of hiwaymen, pirates on the land. 4. It just might be a really nifty design that somebody likes.. Hope this helps................B
It usually means that whatever the sign is on is fatal to your health, meaning it can harm or kill you. Way back in time, if you saw this symbol on a flag that was flying on a ship, it stood for piracy. Other periods of time suggest that this symbol stood for life in so many ways.

The hazard symbol is a skull with crossbones - the meaning is death.
If you mean of pirate lore, it is known as the Jolly Rodger.While a pirate crew would fly the black flag to intimidate a potential ship it intended to attack, it was not the only flag used. A crew would first fly the skull and crossbones on a black background so the other ship would be intimidated, if the other ship didn't surrender the crew would lower the black flag and raise a red flag with a skull and cross bones or whatever symbol the ships crew used as a Jolly Rodger. The red flag showed the crew the time for surrender was over and now everyone on the ship would be killed. Pirates did not take prisoners nor did they spare those people that didn't surrender the first offer.
Hi there. In my line of business people often ask about symbolism and what it means when certain things are inscribed on a gravestone. Generally, the skull and crossbones just stands for mortality or death while a skull with wings refers to ascension to heaven. There are many gravestone symbols that through symbolism make a statement about the person buried there. For instance, a engraved Easter lily symbolizes purity.
Ancient teachings indicate that the skull and cross bones symbolized imortality. It is still a Masonic symbol for imortality.
I love death. An often used goth term of endearment.
Death. It is an ancient pirate symbol used in flag-form (black flag and white skull and crossbones). They would fly it on the ship as a way of telling their victims they were about to die. A kind of psychological warfare in the slow approach of a sailing ship full of people about to kill you. It was quite effective.
