  • Joost van Dyk, parfois orthographié Joost van Dyke, était un corsaire néerlandais (et, semble-t-il, parfois pirate), et l'un des tout premiers colons européens installés dans les Îles Vierges britanniques au XVIIe siècle et qui avait établi les premières colonies de peuplement permanentes sur le territoire. Les îles de Jost Van Dyke et sa voisine plus petite, (« Little Jost »), ainsi que la baie de Little Dix sur l'île de Virgin Gorda, portent son nom. (fr)
  • Joost van Dyk, também referido como Joost van Dyke, foi um pirata dos Países Baixos que viveu entre os séculos XVI e XVII. Faleceu em torno de 1631 mas os meios, a maneira e a data de sua morte remanescem matéria de especulação histórica. (pt)
  • Joost Van Dyk (ook wel gespeld als Joost van Dyke) (overleden ca. 1631) was een uit Nederland afkomstige kaper en soms piraat. Het eiland Jost Van Dyke, dat deel uitmaakt van de Britse Maagdeneilanden, is naar hem genoemd. In 1615 meldden Spaanse bronnen dat de Nederlandse kaper Joost van Dyk zich op het Tortola had gevestigd, en had een nederzetting bij Soper's Hole gesticht. Hij hield zich voornamelijk bezig met de handel in tabak en katoen met Puerto Rico, maar er bevonden zich ook piraten in zijn nederzetting. Van Dyk is vermoedelijk overleden in of rond 1631. (nl)
