One of America's oldest and most haunting mysteries unfolds. The fate of the Lost Colony of Roanoke, the 117 English men, women, and children who settled on Roanoke Island, North Carolina, in 1587, only to vanish without a definitive trace, is investigated. When Governor John White returned from England three years later, he found the settlement deserted, with only the cryptic word "CROATOAN" carved into a palisade and "CRO" on a tree. What are the leading theories: Did the colonists relocate to Croatoan Island (modern Hatteras) and assimilate with the friendly Croatan tribe? Did they attempt to move inland and meet a different fate? Were they victims of disease, conflict, or a supernatural curse? The archaeological clues, the controversial Dare Stones, the historical context, and the enduring enigma of America's Lost Colony are examined. Explore the forgotten curse and enduring questions surrounding Roanoke.
