文化面面觀  Tortuga 島的傳奇

 

Le Vasseur was killed by two of his henchmen in 1652, but the new governor sent by de Poincy also welcomed buccaneers. In January 1654, Spanish troops again drove the pirates out and this time tried to found a permanent colony. However, when an English fleet invaded in 1655, the Spanish governor withdrew its troops to defend Santo Domingo.

In 1656, soon after the English occupied Jamaica, Elias Watts acquired a commission as governor and recruited English and French settlers. The islanders soon returned to piracy. Watts was expelled in 1659 by a French adventurer and Tortuga fell under French control in 1665 when Bertrand D'Ogeron became governor.

D'Ogeron encouraged French settlement along the northern and western coast of Hispaniola, creating the French colony of Saint Dominguez. He also imposed order on Tortuga, but never tried to suppress the pirates, who formed the French colony's best defense in wartime. Pirates continued to visit the Island until France outlawed piracy after 1713. From the 1670's, however, Petit Groave replaced Tortuga as the main pirate haven in the French Islands.
