The Lost Colony & Hatteras Island

[@kevinbriggs2611]

I learned more from watching this video than I have learned in many years of growing up on the Outer Banks. It simply makes sense and Scott has recovered significant artifacts to support it.

Fascinating! I spend lots of time on Ocracoke and out on the Pamlico Sound. It’s amazing how much history surrounds this place. You can almost feel it!

[@fleadoggreen9062]

Very interesting . I am a multi generational farmer in the Okisko comunity between Elizabeth City and Hertford NC at the narrows of the Little River. I have numerous artifsacts points ,pottery, rocks , etc I have found on our home farm and other farms we work in the area , most on high ground near the river swamp . I have always been intrested in the Indians of Northeastern North Carolina their tools ,weapons, and culture . Learned alot from your Museum of The Albemarle Video , I never seem to be able to find much info on our local Indians so you had my attention from the start. Will be looking for you book and thanks for a great presentation . Hope to see more presentations from you in the future.

Be on the lookout for our upcoming exhibition opening in January 2022: Guardians of the Land: Discovering Indigenous Americans of Coastal North Carolina. We are sure you and others like yourself will be most interested in this future exhibition.

This is an important part of the current conversation about when 'our country' began... it's much more interesting to see the history of all humans who have lived here, from the first inhabitants to today. This is a fascinating few years of detail that show the European history in the Americas take shape. I'm delighted that curious, clever local people who take interest in their local history can work together with and be taken seriously by more credentialed academics. What an exciting outcome! THANK YOU!

Scott, great presentation.

There use to be a copy of John White's journal at the library,I checked it out a few times years ago. Now I can't find a copy of it or find anyone that knows where to get one anywhere. Wish I could find one of those.

The weapon lock you are showing is a snaphaunce, but the method of firing you are describing is for a matchlock. There is no lit cord, or a match is it was called in this system, it uses a flint held in those jaws that would forceful strike the flat steel section directly in front of it sending a shower of sparks into the pan to cause ignition. this was a big advance on the matchlock for ease and speed of loading, as well as allowing you to keep a loaded and primed weapon ready to fire for extended periods of time, especially in damp weather.

A viewer from Finland North-Europe :D I've seen at least one documentary about the "lost" colony and there's a bunch of videos on youtube. They mostly are of the "what does Croatoan mean?! Nobody knows!" kind. So annoying how you can't really trust documentaries nowadays because they are "entertainment documentaries". Lazyly done and not properly researched. Not to mention how much "based on historical events" fiction movies cause confusion and the facts being muddled. Even when I read about the actual history, later it's hard to remember what I remember is from fiction and which is from factual sources.

Thank you for this video, it was wonderful. I agree the English had their mitts in everything, Gezz so sad. Glad that the Indians are now getting the recognition they deserve. God bless you🙏🏻❤️

[@nickcage633]

i'm surprised that there's not houses built on top of were they lived

[@fleadoggreen9062]

So what happened to the 15 men ? Are they the ones that are lost ?

[@feliciagaffney1998]

The 15 men were attacked and killed by the natives. The Lost Colony is the group that Scott says went to Croatoan. The Lost Colony includes Virginia Dare and her parents Eleanor and Ananias.

please! Please mention all the dates when these events happened!!!! In order of when they happened!!! Otherwise it’s just a story out there floating around and around in an approximate time because your story seems to go back and forth a lot.

Another side story is the role that Bermuda played!.

[@kevinbriggs2611]

Bermuda? I'd like to hear it!

[@pamelazuill8438]

@@kevinbriggs2611Hi Kevin Briggs! personally i feel that those Colonists at Roanoke were either killed or assimilated with an indian tribe by the name of Croatan! because it was a matter of survival! they were newbys in the land! the Indians knew the ropes! Bermuda saved starving colonist in Jamestown, Virginia and included in the rescue was both John Smith and John Rolfe, the husband of Pocohontas! Bermuda also has an official thankyou letter from George Washington thanking them for Bermuda gunpowder in its fight against England. That was a dangerous mission as Bermuda was loyal to Britain, however some merchants had relatives on the other side.

[@kevinbriggs2611]

I tend to agree with you! OBX Native here

[@pamelazuill8438]

@@kevinbriggs2611 Hi Kevin! Interesting to be an Outer Banks Native as you all had your own culture! Look at it this way, if a people Assimilate they will have time to write the word CROATAN! you wouldn't be able to do that in the throughs of your little colony being invaded! What those people were saying to The English that was supposed to come back was, was that they Assimilated with the Croatan Tribe in order to survive! They only had time to write the most important clue they could, and that was the name of the Indian tribe which was CROATAN!.

[@theprairieartsinkentucky9475]

Tons of info!!! But You might consider someone else to do your narrating, with a professional voice. I’m afraid you sound like a teenager with the “you knows” and the “ums” . Makes me want to double check your narrative and creates some doubt about your research. So sorry but I believe it’s true.

To be frank, this is a stupid method of determining the reliability of information. The rest of the world shouldn’t cater to this sensitivity.

[@megdartmouth]

Wow, for a so-called professional that some appalling level of racism, especially the photo of the grad students. Shame on their instructor.
