PRESENTATION OUTLINE

THE LOST COLONY

OF ROANOKE!

IN 1584 QUEEN ELIZABETH 1 GAVE PERMISSION TO MAKE ROANOKE

A COLONY

FIRST ROANOKE FAILD AFTER 10 MONTHS

THIS WAS THE FIRST ENGLISH COLONY IN NORTH AMERICA

OFF THE COAST OF WHAT IS NOW NORTH CAROLINA

90 MEN, 17 WOMEN, AND 9 CHILDREN LIVED THERE

THE COLONY WAS RAN BY JOHN WHITE

AND THE BOSS OF JOHN WHITE WAS Ralph lane

JOHN WHITE WENT TO GO RESUPPLY THE 118 PEOPLE

WHEN HE RETURNED IN 1587 HOMES WERE GENTALY TORE DOWN AND

TAKEN AWAY!

THE SMALL CANNON WAS GONE AND SO WAS THE PEOPLE BUT PEOPLE'S

POSSESSION WERE BURIED

CUT INTO THE TREE HE FOUND CRO CARVED INTO THE TREE, AT THE

ENTRANCE SOMEONE HAD CARVED CROATOAN INTO THE STOCKADE

ONE THEORY IS THAT INDIANS KILLED SOME OF THE COLONISTS AND

made it look like they disappeared but others didn't get killed but were stranded.

ANOTHER THEORY IS A MAP WAS FOUND THAT COULD HAVE HAD A

LOCATION THEY WENT TO!

IT DOESN'T MAKE SENCE HOW 118 PEOPLE COULD JUST VANISH

IT DOESN'T MAKE SENCE HOW 100 HOUSES COULD DISAPPEAR
