[edit] Pirate Legend

Does anyone have any information on the Flaming Pearls of Magnetic Island? It is a pirate legend from the year 1680BC. Any info would be gratiously recieved.

Unlikely to be the same magnetic island mate, first known European records of the area are from the 18th century AD. - A.Hannay

You might be better off posting the request at Talk:Pirate or Talk:Piracy in the Caribbean. Editors working on those pages may know more about pirate legends. Editors working on this page are more likely to be interested in Australian geography. Good luck. -- Adz 23:41, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
