    Thank you for helping students learn all about the lost colony of Roanoke. It helps a whole lot

    In John White's Journal he wanted the colonists to move west to make a more permanent village if there was an attack. The fort is also currently under a privately owned golf course so we can't excavate any time soon.

    Great video clip. I would love to know more about what's been found at the site so far. I had watched a program recently which was made a bit after the water color map by John White was discovered & there was a forensic geologist who was interested in the same mark on the map which had been covered. He seemed to think the area was either under what is now a golf course or was just a place that John White and the settlers had intended to go. So I'm really glad to see there has been realized about the map than had originally been thought.

      It’s tough because even given the general area, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack. I don’t know how they would begin to figure what area to dig at. The map wasn’t that detailed, it could still be within a 100 sq mile area and already developed land.

    I believe that the settlers went to Croatian because of the threat of the Spanish. I don't believe they were killed, because there would be bodies when John White came back.

      I cant believe that everyone here has missed something that is so obvious, the word Croatoan relates to Croatia. If you google Croatoan and Croatians there is so much evidence that points to Croatian sailors, who were some of the best sailors in the world with great ships to rival many of the English, Dutch, Spanish and Portugese vessels.
      If you google Croatoan and Croatians, read as many articles there as you wish, all evidence points to Croatian connections. The fact that Indian tribes in that region even use Croatian words in their language is truly amazing. Also, DNA testing of Indians in the region showed percentages of Croatian DNA. I have done so much research myself on this and concluded that it is most likely 100% Croatian.

    Some may have gone to Lumberton NC , Fred Willard stated that there were a extra 20 plus ships of Portuguese and others from the south ,with some 200 plus settlers , perhaps from southern islands ,settled here with the Roanokers , the Melungeons may be descendants from these league of nations peoples , that settled NC and surrounding states after 1580 , St Augustine Florida was a town by this time and Juan Pardo had come and gone from NC before 1580 and there were likely a few Lost Tribes from Israel and Norse and Asia here before 1580

    I agree with most historians who say the Lost Colony of Roanoke was assimilated by the local Indian tribes. My 3rd great grandmother was Mary E., who married James E. Robinson in 1775. According to family sources she was a full blooded Tuscarora Indian maidan. Such being the case I should have about 3-6% Indian DNA, but I don’t. I have less than 1%. This tells me that Mary was not full blooded Indian, but part Indian and part English, so this confirms they were assimilated by the local Indian tribes of the area.

    • @Orphen42O

      Also, if the settlers ran away in haste, they may have left their possessions behind. Without actually encountering the colonists, Native Americans could have some across the items after they had been abandoned. The disappearance of the Roanoke settlers and the early Norse settlers of Greenland has always fascinated me.

    Couldn’t the artifacts have been from the Native Americans who were there before the lost colony. There was a time when the colonists traded with the Native Americans before the settlers killed the chief and trading party. Perhaps these were the artifacts that the Native Americans had in their possession perhaps after the murder of their chief they disposed of the colonists things believing they had bad spirits or energy.

      It was with Leif Erickson whom founded it and yes probably the first colony but it didn’t last and was eventually left. But even tho Christopher Columbus didn’t find America he found Haiti and the Caribbean islands and then Europeans made their first settlement in the Americas after. The first colony to actually survive and prosper.

    There's a golf course sitting on the land that the fort would have been built on. They destroyed everything building the golf course and they covered up all archeology to stop archaeologists from slowing down the golf course construction. There are golf courses over a lot of the best archeology and we will never know because the rich always win.

They're all in Virginia, MA, SC, PA, NY, RI, ME, DE, MD. Anyways, the heart of Elizabethan America would have been the James River and along the coast of Mass.

      @@geslinam9703 Yes but those wouldn't be considered Elizabethan architecture. Really most of the earliest architecture surviving in America that would have been English would be Jacobean. I.E. Bacon's Castle in VA not too far from Jamestown. The earliest buildings in PA for example are Swedish; for example Lower Swedish Cabin (which I live only a few miles from) was built in the 1640s and was part of Nya Sverige or New Sweden before England concurred it. Queen Elizabeth died in 1603; four years before there was a successful English colony in America (Jamestown).

      CupcakeExplosion that’s a pretty accurate description of what would have happened if they ran out of food and had to move inland to search for sustenance. One of the theories is they were assimilated into the local tribes. The later Jamestown colonists found some Native American populations who were familiar with English even tho they had never had contact with English people.
