The Lost Colony of Roanoke: New Evidence

As an OBXer, I found the part about the colony moving to Hatteras Island very interesting! All the artifacts they found were pretty cool, but I knew that Tudor Rose would be the ONE as soon as he saw it. I really do hope the Croatoan Tribe does get their name untarnished in the future. I do believe they helped the settlement and I think this dig on Hatteras is proof. Unfortunately, I also believe much is lost in the sea after over 430 years. Maybe there is a survivors camp near Frisco? I hope they find the owner of the golf course land so they can find out one day soon. Keep digging guys, we wanna know!

Typical ancient civilizations ignored and dismasted when they could have helped us so much. Very insightful and nothing I knew about before. I hope they keep going back.

This documentary looked very interesting to me and with a release date in2022, I was excited. It started off OK but slowed down quite a bit. After I had already lost most interest in the program, the unnecessary racism started. Purposely injecting this into a subject that is 100% unrelated is just irresponsible. Not recommended.

A group of archaeologists and volunteers try to dig for the lost colony of Roanoke. The Croatan legend invokes a story of natives massacring stranded white settlers in the lost earliest colony. This is a two-episode TV show. It really needs to lay out the mainstream understanding of the legend. Not everybody is familiar with the story or its use by unsavory aspects of white power establishments. Instead, this is left to the second episode and the closing part of the show. As for the archaeology, it does provide some interesting insights but nothing that definitively overturns the legend or rewrite history. It's another piece in the world of incremental archaeology.

Great show and documentary on the lost Colony with a better cast of scientists. Has some enlightening evidence. Will enjoy a second watch of this. This is the stuff I was taught in grades school too bad they don't teach it today!!!
