Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Piracy flourished in the Caribbean between roughly 1650 and 1730, the period known as the Golden Age of Piracy?

Yes. A Wikipedia article on the Golden Age of Piracy and a Library of Congress research guide both date the Golden Age of Piracy to roughly 1650-1730 and place pirate activity in the Caribbean, matching the claim. A scholarly paper on piracy writings covers the same era but does not use the 'Golden Age' label or give the dates.
