Episode 139 - History's Most Disturbing Mutiny? The Story Of The Dutch Ship Batavia - History Uncovered

Om avsnittet

In 1629, the Dutch ship Batavia wrecked off the coast of what is now Western Australia, stranding over 300 people on remote, barren islands. What followed was not a fight for survival, but a descent into terror, as a mutinous group led by Jeronimus Cornelisz unleashed a campaign of murder, torture, and control. Over the next few months, dozens were slaughtered—not by nature, but by their fellow survivors. This is the story of one of history’s most chilling mutinies, and one of Australia’s earliest and darkest chapters.
