Mystery of America's 'Lost Colony' may finally be solved after 440 years, archaeologists say
A team of researchers believes they may have cracked one of America's most enduring legends: Where did the settlers of the Roanoke Colony go? The Roanoke Colony, also known as the Lost Colony, was the first permanent English settlement in the United States. A group of over 100 colonists settled on North Carolina's Roanoke Island in 1587, led by Sir Walter Raleigh. John White, the governor of the colony, returned to England for supplies in 1587. When he came back to Roanoke Island in August 1590, he found the settlement mysteriously abandoned – and all the colonists, including his daughter Eleanor Dare and his granddaughter Virginia Dare, gone. One of the only clues remaining at the site was the word "CROATOAN" carved into a palisade. It either referred to Croatoan Island, which is now called Hatteras Island, or the Croatoan Indians. The mystery has haunted Americans and Brits for the past four centuries, with several investigations launched into the matter. Whether the colonists were killed by Native Americans, starved to death or left for greener pastures has eluded historians. But new research suggests the colonists' fate may not have been tragic after all. Mark Horton, an archaeology professor at Royal Agricultural University in England, spoke with Fox News Digital about his findings. "This is metal that has to be raised to a relatively high temperature … which, of course, [requires] technology that Native Americans at this period did not have." For the past decade, the British researcher has worked with the Croatoan Archaeological Society's Scott Dawson to uncover the mystery. Horton said they've uncovered proof the colonists assimilated into Croatoan society, thanks to a trash heap. (See the video at the top of this article.) "We're looking at the middens — that's the rubbish heaps — of the Native Americans living on Hatteras Island, because we deduced that they would have very rapidly been assimilated into the Native American population," Horton said. The smoking gun at the site? Hammerscale, which are tiny, flaky bits of iron that come from forging iron. Horton said it's definitive proof of iron-working on Hatteras Island, which could have only been done by English colonists. "The key significance of hammerscale … is that it's evidence of iron-working, of forging, at that moment," he said. "Hammerscale is what comes off a blacksmith's forge." Horton added, "This is metal that has to be raised to a relatively high temperature … which, of course, [requires] technology that Native Americans at this period did not have." Hammerscale shows that the English "must have been working" in this Native American community, according to the expert. But what if the hammerscale came longer after the Roanoke Colony was abandoned? Horton said that's unlikely. "We found it stratified … underneath layers that we know date to the late 16th or early 17th century," he said. "So we know that this dates to the period when the lost colonists would have come to Hatteras Island." "It's a combination of both its archaeological position but also the fact that it's evidence of people actually using an English technology." At the site, archaeologists also found guns, nautical fittings, small cannonballs, an engraved slate and a stylus, in addition to wine glasses and beads – which all paint a vivid picture of life on Hatteras Island in the 17th century. When asked if the colonists could have been killed in a later war, Horton said they survived among the Croatoans and successfully assimilated. "We have one little snippet of historical evidence from the 1700s, which describes people with blue or gray eyes who could remember people who used to be able to read from books," he said. "Also, they said there was this ghost ship that was sent out by a man called Raleigh." Horton added, "We think that they assimilated into the Native American community and their descendants, their sons, their granddaughters, their grandsons carried on living on Hatteras Island until the early 18th century." When asked if he's officially solved the mystery, Horton said that though the archaeological evidence is definitive, the legend will probably still endure. "Have we solved the mystery? Well, you know, it's pretty good evidence, but there's always more work to be done," he said. Horton added, "And people love mysteries. They hate resolving things one way or the other. So I'm sure that the mystery will continue, you know, whatever the scientific evidence says."

Your Daily FoodScope for June 07, 2025
Do you often find yourself wondering what food to cook, how to cook it, and even that dreaded question—how much of it? It's a daily struggle for all of us, but need not be with our food horoscope. Satisfaction is only a click away! You could be tempted to do as little as possible. But that will be difficult as work demands suck you back in. But the day will be over before you know it and you can finally relax. Let someone else do the cooking tonight. Sushi and miso soup will be a mellow way to end the workweek. It'll behoove you to keep the company of those who share your goals today. This will be particularly true if you're trying to lose weight. A support group will keep you focused so arrange to meet for lunch. You can share each other's salads, although you may want to pass on the one with the anchovies. Things will seem blurry today, and comprehension will be hard to come by. You could be experiencing fallout from skipping breakfast. Making amends at lunch could save the day. Turkey breast on rye with a big green salad could have you seeing things clearer, or at least a lot less fuzzy. You may want to bond with your watery roots today. So get in a swim at the local pool. You'll feel right at home in the water and the subsequent workout will do you good. Follow that with a healthy dinner. Hmmm, grilled salmon with a bowl of Manhattan clam chowder suddenly comes to mind. Emotions will run high at work today, but strive to be the embodiment of Zen. This may be tough as you sit in the middle of the swirling vortex. But a cup of organic chamomile tea with a lemon slice and a sprig of mint may prompt you to chant your mantra, much to the chagrin of those around you. What does your karmic journey hold? Discover your destiny with our Karma Report. ✨ Don't expect a lot to get done on this last day of the week. Fortunately you won't have much on your plate, so it'll be easy to relax. But avoid skipping out early to get a head start on happy hour. Those Buffalo wings and nachos can wait until at least five o'clock, but not a minute later. It won't make sense to start new projects today. So milk the work you've already got on your plate. But you'll want to knock off a little early. There's a seat with your name on it at the sushi bar and a boatload of sashimi that's just daring you to dive in. You'll think your imagination is playing tricks on you today. But you'll soon realize that you're staring at the real deal. So pull up a chair and a fork and dig into a delicious crab casserole made with crab fresh from the bay. It'll be so good you'll think you're dreaming. You'll have a hard time getting the engine started today. So put the appropriate fuel into the tank before leaving home. Buttermilk pancakes with turkey sausage smothered in maple syrup will give you something to burn straight through lunch and beyond. Compassion will fuel you with a desire to help the less fortunate today. So buy cans of tuna, soup and fruit as well as boxes of cereal and donate them to your local food bank. It's important to remember those who don't have much to celebrate. You deserve to pamper yourself as the week draws to a close. A massage or facial sound tempting but they will ultimately be unsatisfying. Treat yourself to dinner instead. A surf and turf meal will give you contentment, especially if the surf in question is a plump Maine lobster tail. You may not have funds to lavish yourself with jewelry and trendy new clothes. But you can still pamper yourself and remain within budget. Buy the ingredients needed to make an obscenely cheesy lasagna. You'll get tremendous self-satisfaction and it won't break your bank. Need guidance? Your Numerology Reading is a mystic cheat-sheet to living your full potential.
