After studying about pirates and their wondrous lives I realized that pirates didn't really bury their treasure. i mean when you really think about it it doesn't make sense for them too. those men plundered ships ad villages for goods and money that could bring them wealth right away .........saying you have something is one thing but actually being able to show people you have something is another. Moreover, the whole captain going ashore to bury the treasure is overrated. these men were mutinous boisterous thieves and killers they would NEVER put their trust in one man to bury their share of wealth somewhere on an island and they aren't there someone would end up coming back and steal it all anyway! In conclusion my dear friend: As soon as most pirates got their "booty" they went off to islands where they could spend it on prostitutes and liquor, pretty soon they got low on "treasure" and they were off again to plunder others to gain their wealth once again. Probably not. In the years since bucaneers once sailed the American waters, no buried treasure has ever been found. With all the metal detectors around these days, so one would have found something.

Did pirates really bury their treasure Why?
Most did not, with a few exceptions. Most pirates were anxious to divide up the loot and use what they pilfered from other people's boats. And they rarely discovered gold or silver. Usually they stole food or other perishables that would have been useless, rotten, or spoiled had they buried it. William Kidd pilfered gold and silver from a boat sailing from the Far East. Kidd buried the treasure in Long Island, NY. The gold and silver were confiscated when Kidd was arrested for piracy.
