What happened at roan oke island?

Roanoke Island is famously known for the lost colony established in 1587 by English settlers. When a supply ship returned in 1590, the colony was found deserted, with the only clue being the Word "CROATOAN" carved into a tree. The fate of the settlers remains a mystery, leading to various theories about their disappearance, including assimilation with local Native American tribes or succumbing to disease or starvation. The Roanoke Colony is often referred to as one of America's oldest unsolved mysteries.
