pirate flag
Seafaring outlaw's standard
A pirate flag is a flag flown by pirates, traditionally black with white skull-and-crossbones imagery—the Jolly Roger.
The term extends to any flag with skull motifs, whether on actual vessels or decorative: The beach bar flew a pirate flag from its deck.
Pirate flags signal danger, rebellion, or a spirit of lawlessness.
