In 1587, the English sent a group of settlers to Roanoke to establish a colony in North America. After returning from a trip to Europe, the Governor of this settlement, John White, found that the entire English colony had disappeared. This disappearance has been the subject of great debate. But, it is no longer a mystery; we now know that the settlers did not disappear but instead relocated to the Island of Croatoa.
First, when White returned he found the word “Croatoa” carved onto a piece of wood. The governor had told the colonists that if they encountered any trouble while he was away, to leave a message indicating where they had gone. This sign indicates that the settlers did not disappear mysteriously but rather relocated to the Croatoan Island. Unfortunately, White’s ship was damaged during his return, so he could not travel to the island to check if the settlers were there.
Second, many English artifacts have been found on Croatoa supporting the idea that the settlers from Roanoke simply relocated to the island. Specifically, a ring was found on the Croatoan Island that can be directly linked back to an Englishman. The only way that this ring could have made its way to the island was if it was brought there by one of the English settlers from Roanoke during their relocation.
Third, when search parties finally arrived on the Croatoan Island to look for the Roanoke settlers, they did not find any but did find that the indigenous inhabitants possessed European characteristics. They had light hair and blue eyes, traits not associated with the natives of North America. The peoples of Croatoa could only have attained these characteristics through intermarriage with the English settlers from Roanoke, providing more conclusive evidence that they relocated to Croatoa.
The article states that the group of English settlers did not disappear but instead relocated
to the island of Croatia and provides three reasons to support the claim. However, the
the professor explains that the reasons are weak to consider as a strong point and refutes each of
author's reasons.
First, the reading claims that governor had told the colonists to leave a message indicating
where they had gone when they were in trouble in absence of him. so, the "Croatoan" carved onto
a piece of wood clearly indicates that they relocated to the Croatoan island. The professor
refutes this point by saying it has no sense. He mentions that settlers were told to go to
interior Of country where they can find food, light, and safety by the governor. Since the
island of croatoa is in the opposite, near the shore, Settlers are less likely to go against the
order of governor's order in hard times.
Second, the article posits that many English artifacts and a ring have been found on the island
supporting the idea of the author. However, the professor says that the ring belonging to English
man found its a way to the island is by trade for food between Croatoan and English settlers in a
harsh conditions.
Finally, the reading asserts that the light hair and blue eyes the traits that are found on
Croatoan island is due to intermarriage with English settler's with native people of the island
because this trait is not associated with natives of the island. The professor opposes this
point by explaining that it was after 100 years this trait is been observed. The reason
the professor gives is that in-between English sent a large number of settlers to the island
for food holding. she adds that the traits could be the reason for intermarriage between this new
english settlers and native peoples and not from what the reading states.
