- For over 400 years, the mystery of the "Lost Colony" has puzzled historians and spawned conspiracies-until now. New discoveries link the lost colony of Roanoke to Hatteras Island. Join Scott Dawson, author of "The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island" to hear the story.
What is the meaning of the mysterious word Croatoan? In the 16th century, Croatoan was the name of an island now known as Hatteras. Scholars have long considered the island as one of the colonists' possible destinations, but only recently has anyone set out to prove it.
Hatteras native and amateur archaeologist Scott Dawson shares what scholars know about the Lost Colony along with what they have found beneath the soil of Hatteras.
The Dawson family is so historically intelligent...wow
Wonderful more Ryan Dawson please. He’s so knowledgeable!
Scott, one of Ryan's brothers.
Actually the best video I've seen yet about the subject, including high budget "documentaries" that I now see are extremely light on context. Great work.
This Dawson is Great. Straight down to Earth
Thanks for this prese. I appreciate all your hard work, Scott, and thanks to the Hampton History Museum! My folks have lived on Roanoke Island since the 1600s, and I'm always interested in the history of this whole area.
Saw the Lost Colony play every year on vacation in the 70's. Always wondered what happened to them.
Now I know the rest of the story.🙂
GREAT PRESENTATION! Have ordered Scott's book.
This was awesome. Thanks so much Scott and Allen! I became interested in this just a few short years ago due to my lastname being mentioned as a surname of the "Lost Colony". I really loved learning all this history. Excellent presentation!
This is the best!
I met Scott Dawson last weekend at an author's conference. Very cool and knowledgeable dude. I love the children's book. It's very educational and has some Croatan words.
I'm Portuguese/ Croatan descendant whose ancestors got pushed to the Piedmont and the foothills of western NC. The English are always talked about, but what about the Portuguese, Moors, Arabs, Jews, and Croatian the are said to have come over with Francis Drake? Alot of Melungeons and some of the Lumbee also claim Portuguese ancestry.
Thank you Scott for an awesome presentation- very interesting and informative. You have a great way of communicating and keeping my attention. I hope you continue keeping people educated and interested in all the exciting history right at home in the USA!
Excellent presentation, thank you.
This guy knows his stuff
His brother Ryan Dawson does too.
I appreciate the accurate truth, this is valuable information for all Americian History classes. Some of what you presented is new and will definitely paint a different perspective for history books, teachers and students of the past.
Great video! I love the point at the end where he says you only hurt the birds and turtles if you are going out there for free!
I love history so much ❤❤❤
I saw America Unearthed as Scott Wolter and Scott Dawson personalities and egos clashed. It was funny.
There have been genetic studies that suggest English DNA is present among the descendants of the Native American populations on Hatteras Island, formerly known as Croatoan Island. These findings are part of ongoing research into the fate of the Lost Colony of Roanoke, the English settlers who disappeared in the late 16th century.Researchers have analyzed DNA from modern-day residents of Hatteras Island, as well as historical records and archaeological evidence. Some of these studies suggest a potential link between the Lost Colony settlers and the Croatoan people, who may have integrated the English settlers into their community.
You were froze, but we heard you sir.
Will you furnish the source of Columbus' letter to Ferdinand, Scott? I remember reading many journals of Columbus' previously...but saw the opposite of what you mention here.
Textbooks get a lot of things wrong. Keep up the fight by discussing and teaching people to hone some common sense skills to evaluate what must be true and most likely happened. I think that people gain an appreciation that way and have more respect for life and history.
🕯🙂👍
Haters island???
IS THAT WHERE RY DAWSON IS NOW 🤌
Maybe they attempted to go to Hateraa islabd and they drowned
Artifacts from 11,000 B.C. Proves there was no Noah's flood of the "whole" earth.
How does that prove there wasn't a flood? I think your logic is flawed. There could be people before a flood event and those people could leave artifacts and die. A year later or many years later, a huge flood event could happen and those artifacts could become buried or remain buried depending on their status at time of flood. Things are buried would most likely stay buried until the waters receded at which point the receding waters could wash some up and leave some buried buried depending on topography and soil stability. So I don't see your point, what is it?
@@zgarrett14 The very very old artifacts we have from so long ago would have been destroyed by the flood - they are delicate. But okay forget that part. Just think about this. Noah's family had to inbreed. If they were the only people on the earth, and all from them are inbred, we would have died out long ago, scientists have said.
@@mollybrownuptown5849 wow. Good luck.
There have been two massive flood events in modern human history. Alika 2 megaslide/tsunami Hawaii and the burkle crater event and mega tsunami
Wow this was terrible
