The Roanoke island was the place of the first group of British settlers in the New World. 3 English expeditions arrived between 1584 and 1587, two of them  returned to England but one never appeared, natives lived on the island an they received the British very well but everything got out of hand when the British killed the leader of the natives and they had to flee, my theory is that when the English killed the chief of the native tribe who probably seeking revenge, waited for him to the English returned to England for supplies to wipe out the rest of the English colony that remained on the island.

There have been many hypotheses about the fate of the Roanoke settlers. There was the assumption that he was moved that they had integrated with the Croatoan tribe, that the Spanish attacked and destroyed the settlement. And then, of course, there were the myths and ghost stories, many centered on Virginia Dare. In her case, legend has it that she grew up among the Indians, and that a love dispute between two of them transformed her into a white deer, whose ghost can still be seen in the place where the Roanoke fort stood.

The last group of them is said to have disappeared during the Anglo-Spanish War, after the last shipment of provisions from England. Its nickname is due to the disappearance of these, they are known as the lost colony. To this day no evidence has been found about the fate of the settlers.

One of the theories suggests that they were divided into two groups, which joined the indigenous communities of the area, because in Hatteras, 80 kilometers southeast of Roanoke, European objects of the time were found, such as bowls, a sword, a carved board.

On the other hand, remains of British activity were also found at the same distance, to the northwest, on the mainland.

I believed that the last group of settlers disappeared in 1587 until during the Anglo-Spanish War, three years after the last shipment of supplies from England. His disappearance gave rise to his nickname "The Lost Colony". To this day no definitive evidence has been found on the final fate of the settlers.

The origins of one of the America’s oldest unsolved mysteries can be traced to August 1587, when a group of about 115 English settlers arrived on Roanoke Island, off the coast of what is now North Carolina. Later that year, it was decided that John White, governor of the new colony, would sail back to England in order to gather a fresh load of supplies. But just as he arrived, a major naval war broke out between England and Spain, and Queen Elizabeth I called on every available ship to confront the mighty Spanish Armada. In August 1590, White finally returned to Roanoke, where he had left his wife and daughter, his infant granddaughter (Virginia Dare, the first English child born in the Americas) and the other settlers three long years before.

He relates that between 1584 and 1587 three different English expeditions arrived on the island but only two returned, the third stayed and he never returned.
Theories about the disappearance have ranged from an annihilating disease to a violent rampage by local Native American tribes. Previous digs have turned up some information and artifacts from the original colonists but very little about what happened to them.

Thanks to technological advances and a cover-up on a map, researchers are getting closer to finding out what happened to the lost colony of Roanoke Island.

The settlers may have disappeared because they were left without sufficient resources to survive and this led them to ask other nearby tribes for help. But we will not know if they helped them or attacked them.

the theory that seems most feasible to me is that they allied themselves with other nearby communities because I read that in a community called Hatteras, which is 80 kilometers away, they found European objects from that time.

The legend of Roanoke Island has been passed down from generation to generation since 1590 when a group of 120 English settlers mysteriously vanished.

In the late 1500s, the English made their first attempts to settle in North America on Roanoke Island, which is off the coast of North Carolina. These first settlers ended up returning to England because of a shortage of food and Indian attacks.

In 1587, a second colony was founded on Roanoke. It was then that Virginia Dare, the first baby born to English parents in North America, was born. John White, the leader of the colony, went to England to get more supplies. When he returned in 1590, the settlement was deserted. All the settlers had mysteriously disappeared. The only clue he found was the word "Croatoan" carved in a tree. To this day no one knows what happened to them. It's possible that the Colonists joined with the friendly Croatoan natives. Or were they massacred by the unfriendly Wanchese tribe? No one knows for sure.

For a long time, there have been many theories about the fate of the roanoke settlers, one of them is that they had moved to the croatoan island, but there are also myths and legendes that may have had a link with ghosts,witches and aliens.
One of the theories speaks of a spirit that may have related to the disapperance of the settlers, it was said that this spirit may have turned people into stones or trees, only if they made him angry.

The settlers must have been integrated into the local tribes, a theory reinforced by the latest archaeological discoveries. According to an article published by The New York Times in August 2015, it shows that an archaeological team has found artifacts such as flintlock rifles or food jars that could have belonged to the lost colonists because the objects belong to the 16th century and, at that time, the natives lacked the necessary technology to be able to create them.

There are too many theories about it. I consider that The settlers could have been killed by Native American tribes.

It's just a speculation.

Previous digs have turned up some information and artifacts from the original colonists but very little about what happened to them.

We can speculate a lot about what happened to the settlers in Roanoke. The tribe could have escaped for multiple reasons that are unknown to us. There are other myths or ghost stories, many centered on Virginia Dare, legend has it that she grew up among the Indians, and that a love dispute between two of them transformed her into a white deer, whose ghost can still be seen in the place where the fort stood of Roanoke.

There are too many theories about it.
The Colonists must have Absorbed into Local Indian Populations.
The Roanoke could have captured as Slaves.
The most popular theory is that the colonists could have left Roanoke and that they may have sought shelter with other Indian tribes.
The Colonists could have murdered by Cannibalism.
The colonist may have had a disease.
The Colonist can't have had haunted.

There is no conclusive evidence as to what happened to the Roanoke colony.Theories range from the plausible to the improbable, including massacre, migration, and even a zombie outbreak.

One hotly debated clue is a rock, supposedly carved by Roanoke settlers, that was found in a swamp in North Carolina. I'm not sure but it could be that two of the original settlers, Virginia and Ananias Dare, were killed. For decades, the rock has been repeatedly authenticated and debunked by archaeologists and historians. However, one popular theory held that the Roanoke settlers were killed by nearby Indian tribes.

After of a large research, I think that the Roanoke Lost Colony was lost because an extreme famine happened, and due this, all the people leave this place to try find some food.

It was assumed that they had moved (perhaps to the island of Croatoan), that they had integrated with the Croatian tribe, that the Spanish had attacked them and destroyed the settlement ... And then of course there were the myths and stories of ghosts, many centered on Virginia Dare. In her case, legend has it that she grew up among the Indians, and that a love dispute between two of them transformed her into a white deer, whose ghost can still be seen in the place where the Roanoke fort was located.

But I think the most probable thing was that the first settlers of that place (the Indians) did not let anyone pass and when the resources of that place were exhausted, they all died, so they did not find any true testimony.

The last group sent by the settlers was given the name of the lost colony because until now it is not known what happened to that group, perhaps some of their enemies attacked and killed them or perhaps they could have been lost in the area and died.

I take it that the last group of settlers disappeared during a war, I don't know exactly which, three years after the last shipment of supplies from England. According to inaccurate investigations, his disappearance gave rise to his nickname "The lost colony." It is said that to this day no definitive evidence has been found on the final fate of the settlers.

There is no trace that happened with the Roanoke colony the only thing that infers is that they could be killed or massacred but the graves have never been found, Roanoke colony may have disappeared when jhon white went for supplies.~ Santiago García Hernández

There may be many theories about what happened to the settlers. I believe that the settlers must have moved another part, because the reinforcements did not arrived and due to the drought, I believe that many must have died and the rest joined the existing settlements. ~Ingrid Morales.
