This episode explores the mystery of Roanoke Island, where an entire English colony vanished without a trace in the late 16th century. Known as the Lost Colony, the settlement was established in 1587 by John White. Upon his return in 1590, he found the colony deserted, with the only clue being the word "Croatoan" carved into a post. The episode delves into historical accounts, archaeological evidence, and theories ranging from integration with local Native American tribes to relocation or demise due to disease or conflict. Experts analyze the evidence to shed light on one of America's oldest unsolved mysteries.
