من هو ربان سفينة ماري سِليست ؟
Benjamin Spooner Briggs (April 24, 1835 – likely November 1872) was an experienced United States seaman and master mariner. He was the Captain of the merchant ship "Mary Celeste" when she was discovered unmanned and drifting in the Atlantic Ocean near the Straits of Gibraltar on December 4, 1872. The lifeboat was missing, yet the "Mary Celeste" herself was still under sail and there were signs of a sudden and unexplained abandonment. Benjamin Briggs, his wife Sarah and their two-year-old daughter Sophia Matilda, were never found and are presumed lost, along with the crew of "Mary Celeste".
