Podcasts about Hatteras Island

This week I'm very excited to share with you some recent developments in the story of the “Lost Colony” of Roanoke. I'm joined by Scott Dawson, who runs the Lost Colony Museum in the town of Buxton, on Hatteras Island. For a long time, Scott has been working with British archaeologist Dr. Mark Horton to excavate sites of old Native American villages in Buxton, left by a group known as the Croatoan. What they have discovered recently may just be the first real “smoking gun” evidence to prove what really happened to the colonists. And, no spoilers, but it's pretty much exactly what we should have already realized happened.Support the Croatoan Archaeological Society here!  - cashatteras.comEarlier Roanoke Colony Episodes - Episode 27 (part 1) and episode 28 (part 2)Support the show! Join the Patreon (patreon.com/historyfixpodcast)Buy some merchBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: "The Head in Edward Nugent's Hand" by Michael Leroy ObergIsland Free Press "‘Smoking gun' evidence of Lost Colony's relocation to Hatteras Island makes international news"Shoot me a message!

Episode Summary:   In this episode of From The Void, host John Williamson sits down with renowned archaeologist and historian Dr. Mark Horton to investigate one of America's most enduring mysteries: the disappearance of the Lost Colony of Roanoke.   In 1587, over 100 English settlers vanished from Roanoke Island, leaving behind almost no trace—except for a cryptic word carved into a tree: Croatoan. Was the colony destroyed, absorbed into Indigenous communities, or did something even stranger happen?   Drawing on decades of research and excavation work, Dr. Horton sheds new light on the evidence, debunks popular myths, and shares the latest archaeological discoveries that might finally solve the puzzle. Together, they explore how this story has shaped American mythology—and why it still captures our imagination centuries later.   Step into the void as we trace the footsteps of a vanished colony.   Guest:   Dr. Mark Horton •Professor of Archaeology and Cultural Heritage at the Royal Agricultural University •Leading expert on early colonial settlements and transatlantic exploration •Director of multiple archaeological projects investigating Roanoke, Hatteras Island, and early English settlements •Advocate for integrating Indigenous histories and archaeological findings into the Roanoke narrative   Topics Covered: •The original Roanoke expeditions and colonization attempts •John White's return and the cryptic Croatoan carving •Indigenous tribes of the region and evidence of integration •Environmental challenges, including drought and famine •Recent archaeological discoveries on Hatteras Island •Why the Roanoke story still matters today   Recommended Resources & Links: •

Originally published as 'Lost' on Nov 14, 2016, this remastered episode was published on Patreon on June 18th, 2024. "Before the colony of Jamestown, another colony attempt was made on Roanoke Island. After several years and many unfortunate events, the people and the village seemingly disappeared. The Colony of Roanoke is known as the Lost Colony, and it's not as lost as you might think."

In this special podcast edition, Justin ventures down to Buxton, NC to sit with local author Mrs. Jan Dawson and talk about her life coming to Hatteras Island as a young girl, moving here permanently and what inspired her to become a writer. Jan has written two fiction books (and a third on the way) called 'Storm Season' and 'Hooked on You', both clean romance novels with Hatteras Island serving as the backdrop! These books would be great holiday gifts that will surely bring out that "OBXcitement" in you! You can find them at many bookstores on the Outer Banks, on Amazon, or buy them online from one of the local bookstores like Buxton Village Books & Ducks Cottage.

Title: Languaging in Hampton Roads Episode 10: The Ebb and Flow of Coastal Carolina Languages Hosts: Prue Salasky and Jill Winkowski Date: Oct. 31, 2024 Length: 34.15 min Publication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx) of each month Co-hosts Prue Salasky and Jill Winkowski delve into the history and language of Hatteras and Ocracoke Islands, part of the Outer Banks, OBX, of North Carolina, our neighbors to the south and part of our geographical culture in Hampton Roads. They interview two experts on the region. Scott Dawson, whose family traces its roots back to the 1600s on Hatteras, has devoted countless hours to researching the language and culture of the Croatoan people and their early encounters with English settlers. An amateur archaeologist and historian, he has identified artifacts and produced word lists of the Carolina Algonquian spoken on Hatteras Island when the first English settlers arrived in the 16th century. (https://www.coastalcarolinaindians.com/category/research-databases/blair-a-rudes-indigenous-language-collection/). He credits the efforts of English scientist and polymath Thomas Harriot (Hariot) working with Croatoans Manteo and Wanchese for much of what's known today about the indigenous residents, their culture and language. We also learn more about Thomas Harriot and his scientific accomplishments, among the greatest of his generation. Dawson is a founder of the Croatoan Archaeological Society (http://www.cashatteras.com) and also opened a museum on Hatteras to tell a different version of the “lost colony” of Roanoke Island (https://www.lostcolonymuseum.com). . Linguistically, sociolinguist Prof. Walt Wolfram, William C. Friday Distinguished University Professor at N.C. State, places the dialects spoken on the Outer Banks islands as part of the Tidewater diaspora. For example, the brogue spoken on Ocracoke, he says, is closer to that of Tangier Island in the Chesapeake Bay than to that of nearby mainland communities. A scholar of language variation, Wolfram contrasts the vibrancy of the distinctive English dialect of the Lumbee in Robeson County with the rapidly declining use of Ocracoke's traditional dialect. He is also the director of the North Carolina Language and Life Project which documents dialects and speech variations. Listeners can find speech samples for the Lumbee, Ocracoke Islanders and many more by searching for The North Carolina Language and Life Project on YouTube. The changes in language use and dialect over 400 years in these coastal communities first tells the story of English settlement and its impact on indigenous communities. Then ongoing changes reveal shifting demographics and how geography intersects with language and identity.

Video Version Only Available on Spotify and YouTube. The Lost Colony of Roanoke. Set during the late 1500s, a period known as the age of exploration and the height of the Tudor dynasty, the story unfolds amidst England's rise to global power, shortly after the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. In 1587, under a charter granted by Queen Elizabeth I, Sir Walter Raleigh sent 115 colonists to establish an English settlement on Roanoke Island, in what is now North Carolina. Led by Governor John White, the group included men, women, and children, including White's daughter, Eleanor Dare, and his granddaughter, Virginia Dare, who was the first English child born in the Americas. However, after White's return to England to gather supplies, he was delayed for three years by England's war with Spain. When he finally returned to Roanoke in 1590, he found the settlement completely deserted. The only clues left behind were the word “CROATOAN” carved into a fence post and the letters “CRO” etched on a nearby tree. These inscriptions led White to believe the colonists had relocated to Croatoan Island (now Hatteras Island), but he was unable to confirm this due to bad weather and damaged ships, which forced his return to England. No further expeditions to locate the colonists were ever mounted, and the fate of the settlement remained unknown. Several theories have been proposed over the centuries to explain the disappearance of the Roanoke colonists. One of the most widely accepted is that the settlers may have integrated with local Native American tribes to survive. Other possibilities include an attack by Spanish forces or that the colonists perished while attempting to sail back to England. Recent archaeological discoveries, such as English artifacts found on Hatteras Island, lend some credence to the integration theory, though conclusive evidence remains elusive. This episode explores these and other theories, while examining the ongoing cultural significance of the Lost Colony of Roanoke, and the modern technologies being used in the quest to solve this historic mystery.

Im Jahr 1587 erreichte eine Gruppe von 117 englischen Siedlern die Insel Roanoke, vor der Küste des heutigen North Carolina, um eine neue Kolonie zu gründen. Unter der Führung von John White hoffen sie, in der Neuen Welt ein neues Leben zu beginnen. Doch als White im Jahr 1590 nach England zurückkehrt, findet er die Kolonie verlassen vor – ohne Spur von den Siedlern. Die einzige Hinterlassenschaft: das Wort "Croatoan", das in einem Baum eingeritzt ist. .......Das Folgenbild zeigt die Rückkehr von Gouverneur White zur "verlorenen Kolonie"........WERBUNGDu willst dir die Rabatte unserer Werbepartner sichern?

This episode was recorded LIVE, together in real life, back in October 2022  in Sedona Arizona. I was on a month-long camper van experiment out West but that's a story for a different day.  This week's guest, Erin Sharaf,  is both a scientist and a mystic. A former primary care provider and university professor who became a mindfulness expert and shaman.  Erin now helps cultivate healing for people and the planet through enhancing the connection between mind-body-spirit and nature. Her work draws on both traditions of modern science and ancient wisdom. We met up for a hike amongst Sedona's red rocks, then sat down to talk about how her own mindfulness journey from a new student, a few decades ago, led her to become a fierce advocate for the planet.  “I sit so we all can rise”. Let that sink in. Magic. What do we do with all that we become aware of when we get still, meditate and can see clearly once the dust of our minds settle?  Do we have a responsibility to do anything about that which we see? For Erin, this is where her passion for social justice, peace and kindness came alive. Mindfulness Teacher

Scott Dawson is the author of, The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island. Scott was raised on Hatteras Island and calls it home to this day. Besides being an author of several books, he's also a historian and amateur archaeologist. Having grown up on Hatteras Island, Scott Dawson saw artifacts and heard stories from his ancestors and friends regarding the Croatoan Indians. In his book he explains how Croatoan was a stand-alone island where Buxton, Frisco, and Hatteras are currently located. It was a stand-alone island because there was an inlet somewhere around the north side of Buxton. In his research, Scott Dawson cites multiple examples of evidence proving that the English who were left on Roanoke Island went to Croatoan and were assimilated in to the tribe with the help of their native friend, Manteo. The English had been to Croatoan two other times so they were familiar with the area and had created friendships with the Natives. Nobody was lost and there is no mystery. Besides written evidence the Croatoan Archaeology Society has performed several, successful digs on Hatteras Island, giving them physical proof that the colonists were here.

Meet Mike Harrington, a true legend among vacation rental managers.   Mike's career in hospitality started by accident.  After graduating from business school, Mike received a call from a recruiter to join a vacation rental management company on Hatteras Island. He learned the ropes of the industry at this first gig, grew to love the art of the business, and eventually decided that what he really wanted was to own and operate his own vacation rental management company.  After working at one of the largest vacation rental managers in the Outer Banks, Mike decided to take the leap and founded Carolina Retreats, a vacation rental management firm that would grow to serve nearly 400 properties across the state of North Carolina.  Along the way he'd answer the call to serve his colleagues in the industry by becoming the president of VRMA, the largest professional trade association for vacation rental managers, and serving in that role for over 6 years.  While Mike had no intention of selling his business, in 2021 he got an offer from V Trips, one of the world's most respected vacation rental management brands, that he just couldn't refuse.  Tune in to hear the stories, lessons and insights Mike has garnered throughout his career and get an inside look at the company he's building next.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA, and G4BAO on Thursday the 31st of August 2023 We had another week of relatively settled solar conditions. The Kp Index never really got above three and the Solar Flux Index flattened to be below 140. Solar flares were nominal with only minor C-class events occurring and with no Earth-directed coronal mass ejections. The solar wind speed remains low as does its density. The all-important Bz has headed south at times meaning it more easily couples to the Earth's magnetic field, but the solar wind's low speed and density means we have not suffered from geomagnetic disturbances. As a result, ionospheric conditions were quite good with much DX romping in on 21MHz, including Mongolia on FT8 during the afternoon. On the 10m band Vlad, 9Q2WX in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Robert, 9N7AA in Nepal, were both logged around lunchtime on CW. At the same time, Ravi, S79VU in the Seychelles could be heard on SSB. The Chilton and Fairford Digisondes remain down, but Dourbes remains online which is still driving propquest.co.uk Daytime maximum useable frequencies over a 3,000km path are currently peaking above 28MHz at times, although you may find 21 and 24MHz more usable. Daytime critical frequencies remain above 7MHz making the 40m band very useful around the UK. Next week, NOAA predicts that the Solar Flux Index will remain in the range of 140 to156. Geomagnetic conditions are predicted to be quiet, apart from an excursion between September the 6th to the 8th when the Kp index could rise to three. And now the VHF and up propagation news There will be some GHz bands rain scatter on offer as we end this current week, but it's ‘all change' by the weekend. The prospects for VHF and UHF, then, are looking very promising indeed, especially good for those out working portable in the 144MHz Trophy Contest today, the 3rd of September. After lots of uncertainty in the forecast during the last week, there is now plenty of support from the models that the high-pressure version is the favoured outcome. This should be very encouraging for 2m band contesters hoping to get some enhanced Tropo propagation. Paths across the southern North Sea to Denmark and southern Sweden look good throughout. It would also be worth looking to the south across the Channel and, for some southwestern parts of the UK, down across Biscay to Spain. There are two very useful websites that detail the expected Tropo prospects using the weather forecast model data to calculate the vertical changes in the refractive index of the air and hence Tropo. These are dxinfocentre.com and tropo.f5len.org Remember that Tropo improves as you move from HF to 2m, to 70cm and 23cm. So, give CW or SSB a try and don't just stay on FT8 or over-crowded repeater channels during lift conditions. These enhanced Tropo conditions will likely extend well into next week, but with a chance of low pressure bringing unsettled weather back to the south by the end of next week. The daily Sporadic-E blogs have finished for this year, but the jet stream charts will still be available on propquest.co.uk and of course, random meteor scatter and chance aurora are still there if you are lucky. For EME stations, Moon declination is positive again but reaches maximum late at night initially moving to early morning as the week progresses. Last Wednesday's perigee means path losses are still low but increasing daily. 144MHz sky noise is low, rising to moderate by next weekend. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Historian and author Scott Dawson joins Tim to talk about his team's discovery of what actually happened to the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island on the Outer Banks. He has spent the past 11 years working with a team of archaeologists, historians, botanists and geologists to try to uncover the truth behind the story of the Lost Colony. This episode was first released on September 20, 2020. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/Encore_-_Lost_Colony.mp3 It was August of 1590, and Englishman John White was about to return to the Roanoke Colony in the Americas, where he had been named governor three years earlier. John was among 115 English settlers who landed at Roanoke Island off the coast of what we now know as North Carolina in the Outer Banks region. After the group settled in Roanoke, John had sailed back to England to collect a load of supplies the settlers would need. He would have returned to Roanoke Island sooner, but England's war with Spain complicated things. So, now, three years later, John is about to return to Roanoke, where he last saw his wife and daughter, along with his granddaughter, and the other settlers. Then something unexpected happens. When John White arrives at the colony, he finds no one. Not a single person is there to greet him. Not a trace. One clue, however, would prove to be the key to unlocking this mystery over 400 years later. On a wooden post, one word was carved.  It said “Croatoan,” which is the name of a local native American tribe, and the name of an island south of Roanoke where the Croatoans lived. Those are the facts we've known until now. Scott Dawson has studied this mystery more than most and decided to get some answers for himself.

This episode was recorded LIVE,together in real life, back in October in Sedona Arizona. I was on a month-long camper van experiment out West but that's a story for a different day.  This week's guest, Erin Sharaf,  is both a scientist and a mystic. A former primary care provider and university professor who became a mindfulness expert and shaman.  Erin now helps cultivate healing for people and the planet through enhancing the connection between mind-body-spirit and nature. Her work draws on both traditions of modern science and ancient wisdom. We met up for a hike amongst Sedona's red rocks, then sat down to talk about how her own mindfulness journey from a new student, a few decades ago, led her to become a fierce advocate for the planet.   “I sit so we all can rise”. Let that sink in. Magic. What do we do with all that we become aware of when we get still, meditate and can see clearly once the dust of our minds settle?  Do we have a responsibility to do anything about that which we see?  For Erin, this is where her passion for social justice, peace and kindness came alive. Mindfulness Teacher Plant Powered Creatrix | Peaceful warrior | Health enthusiast | Shamanic Practitioner lover of life. An internationally certified mindfulness instructor, she has been creating transformative workshops for over a decade. Featured on NPR, in Mindful magazine and at conferences like SXSW, her greatest joy is getting to share transformative, heart-opening practices with others in the hopes that people will expand their circle of compassion to include all living beings.    A free spirit, she splits her time between MA, Sedona and Hatteras Island. You can often find her gazing at the night sky, wandering slowly through the woods or dancing up a storm.   Join her Mindfulness & Magic community at www.erinsharaf.com

The S.S. Pulaski was built for the ocean, unlike her predecessor Home. Pulaski was larger, faster, more robust and far more glamorous. She was the who's who of eastern seaboard ocean liners, everyone sought a berth aboard and dare to take a trip on board the new and elegant Pulaski. She was built so impressively not only to attract the attention of rich businessmen, but to allay passenger fears after what happened to the S.S. Home. S.S. Pulaski departed on her fourth voyage on the thirteenth of June, 1838.  She was to set sail from Savannah, pick up more passengers in Charleston, then carry on to Baltimore. Many of the passengers on board were wealthy businessmen with last names we have all heard of, Hamilton and Rochester to name a few. The passengers who traveled on the Pulaski were some of the richest folk in the Southeastern United States. But, not all of the names are recorded in the manifest for the transit. And truthfully, this was a pretty common occurrence for the time. Sometimes tickets were exchanged, or someone signed on last minute, and there would be no record of that person on the ship. Sometimes, people just disappear from our written history. The North Carolina Coast is a mysterious place. There is one place in particular though, that leaves you with an eerie feeling. Hatteras Island used to be known as Croatoa or Roanoke Island. And yes, that's the same Roanoak Island where the settlers disappeared from without a trace. A large part of Hatteras island is mad up by the sandy Cape Hatteras. And while it may seem like a lovely vacation spot with a quaint lighthouse, this mystifying jutting cape off the North Carolina Coast and the area surrounding it, is also known as the graveyard of the Atlantic.

Mobile and portable categories have resumed, but the organisers ask that participants please act sensibly. Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA & G4BAO on Friday the 27th of August. We had another week with a quiet Sun, but it wasn't as settled as you might think. Yes, the solar flux index was in the low- to-mid-80s, but the Sun started to get very active. The first event on Sunday saw a prominence eruption off the west limb that flung a coronal mass ejection, or CME, into space. Another eruption near active region 2859 also launched a large amount of plasma into space, but luckily it was not headed towards Earth. So, by Thursday, we had two large sunspot groups visible, with perhaps region 2860 looking more and more active as it grows. Any potential CME activity occurring as a result of any solar flare this weekend will likely end up hitting the Earth. DX was a little sparse, but there were some nuggets to be had. Josep, EA3BT, on holiday in Tanzania, was workable on 15m as 5I3B and Pasi, OJ0W, on Market Reef, supplied CW QSOs for many stations on a mix of bands including 80 metres. Gary, G0FWX on the 10 metre UK Net Facebook group reported hearing Australia on 10m FT8 last week. Gary said: “I started working VKs in the middle of September on SSB last year, but this is a good sign”. Next week, NOAA predicts the solar flux index will be in the mid-70s with mainly settled geomagnetic conditions. Friday the third is the exception when the Kp index is set to rise to four. Maximum usable frequencies are starting to rise a little thanks to seasonal changes, with 18MHz and even 21MHz often open during the daytime. These openings will likely firm up as we head towards mid-September and head into Autumn ionospheric conditions. And now the VHF and up propagation news. High pressure looks very likely to dominate the weather charts for the coming week and will continue the Tropo-themed weather pattern of the last few days. Unlike Sporadic-E, Tropo tends to be long lasting but is usually better overnight and across sea paths like the North Sea or across Biscay to Spain and beyond to EA8. Don't forget to try modes other than FM and FT8, such as SSB or CW – and do call CQ if the band is quiet. Sporadic-E itself is looking less exciting as we head to the end of the current summer season. Fleeting events can still happen, and 10m will carry the most traffic with just the odd foray onto 6m on a good day. Meteor scatter via random meteors is usually at its best in August, so keep looking around dawn to benefit from the pre-dawn enhancement. This is caused by the dayside of the earth rotating into the flux of meteors in the orbital plane. There is just one small meteor shower this week, peaking on the 1st of September. The Aurigids have a low Zenithal Hourly Rate of just six. The Moon reaches apogee on Monday so path losses will be at their highest for the month. On the positive side, peak declination occurs on Thursday so we have high peak elevations over 60 degrees meaning less ground noise at VHF and long Moon visibility windows. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

The bridge over the Oregon Inlet on North Carolina's Outer Banks is vital to the residents of Hatteras Island, so it's hard to imagine there was a time when there were serious disagreements about building the bridge in the first place.

Growing up on Hatteras Island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina I was fortunate enough to live right next door to one of the best most legendary underground east coast shapers. Scott Busbey  (In The Eye Surfboards) has been hand crafting surfboards since the 70's out of his backyard shed behind Natural Art Surf Shop in Buxton. He custom built my boards from a young age and then later taught me the art of shaping...

USA Today -bestselling author David Poyer writes gripping undersea thrillers in the tradition of Clive Cussler and John D. MacDonald. This time on THE SURGICAL FICTION PODCAST, an excerpt from David Poyer's novel BAHAMAS BLUE, with the continuing undersea exploits of Tiller Galloway and his sidekick Shad Aydlett. Narrated by Edison McDaniels. Salvage diver and ex-con Tiller Galloway vowed he'd never work for "The Baptist" again. Until the menacing kingpin makes him an offer he can't refuse, sending him deep into the beautiful blue Caribbean to raise fifty tons of sunken cargo-- a dive to the razor's edge of death. Caught in the cross fire of a crazed underboss, hostile islanders, and a corrupt Bahamian government, Tiller and his Hatteras Island sidekick Shad Aydlett take on a nightmare of double crosses, as a scenario more sinister than he ever imagined begins to unfold. From the author of Down to a Sunless Sea comes this shattering sequel to Hatteras Blue, a tale as explosive as those of Hammond Innes and Peter Benchley, and packed with some of the most breathless and vivid undersea scenes ever written. Bahamas Blue was originally published by St. Martin's in 1991, as the second book in the Tiller Galloway series. This edition incorporates many minor cleanups and improvements. I'm happy you can enjoy it once more! I hope you'll like it, and will go on to read the other Galloway novels: Hatteras Blue, Louisiana Blue, and Down to a Sunless Sea. Audiobook available soon on Audible. Narrated by Edison McDaniels. //////////////////// THE SURGICAL FICTION PODCAST is narrated by Edison McDaniels.

Spooky Szn Special (Episode 110) October 31st 2020 Roanoke Island’s Lost Colony   Today on Baked and Awake My First Conspiracy- The Lost English Colony of Roanoke Island. This is both a Ghost Story, therefore fitting for a show released on Halloween, and to my mind a compelling example of competing versions of history that can be found not only here, but in so many stories we have preserved and related as “facts” throughout human history. I’m about to share with you a whole bunch of very well documented details that I nevertheless doubt you’ve heard anywhere else. As I am indicating, this is a story many, if not most of you think you already know.  I hope today to at least tell those of you in that camp a little bit more than you knew before, maybe a lot more- and for those fortunate enough to be learning about the Lost Colony for the first time today, I welcome you most warmly of all, and I promise to treat this opportunity of telling you this tale as the honor that in many ways it is. As always I’ll remind you that there are detailed show notes for every episode and I usually include just about every source I cite during the show so that you can perform your own research to your satisfaction should you care to investigate further. talktous@bakedandawake is the email to use if you want to get in touch and talk further about any questions you have, or for anything else, really. Now, to do this Roanoke story any justice whatsoever, we are gonna have to use my personal Temporal Panopticon, otherwise known as a 2018 Mac Mini with two thrift store displays and a just decent broadband internet connection. We will use this magic mirror in order to peer into the mists of time. And since this time machine is so powerful, we have the opportunity to not only travel back to 1587, the year of the founding of the famed Lost Colony, but indeed to two years earlier, when the first colony at Roanoke was founded, only to be abandoned in only about 9 months. But really, why would we stop there?  Because even in 1585 there were more colonies and “expeditions” also known as “raiding parties” than I can easily count, so much so that we will come back to this point in a few minutes after we ever so briefly take a moment to remember, and to a small extent name, the existing inhabitants of the lands in question, which were at the time of this particular moment in history, already engaging in persistent, decades long campaigns of trading, raiding, and enslaving the indigenous people of North America for the enrichment of themselves and their European Patrons, and with an eye to completely acquiring said lands while subduing the People of those lands. This destiny and mission was laid out from just about Day One, as far as I can tell. This episode promises to be a long one.  I’m talking plug in your phone, grab a cup of tea, roll something extra frosty up and probably pack a backup bowl because the ride is long and bumpy, and ends in a book from the 1970’s that I found on my own bookshelf that I just knew had to have a little tidbit for me.  And that book did not disappoint.

Scott Dawson historian from the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and author of the book The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island explains how information from the project he is working on uncovered evidence that determined what actually happened to the lost Roanoke colony. He discusses how the story has developed into a legend and how it found its way into pop culture. The talks about Sir Walter Raleigh’s preferred relationship with the Queen of England and his initial expedition. The conversation covers the rise of Spanish power and colonial holdings and the threat to England which prompted a series of expeditions from privateers such as Sir Francis Drake. The philosophy of Richard Hakluyt is discussed and how it impacted English ambition and colonization. Dawson describes the early foundations of the Roanoke colony and its many problems and challenges. He goes into detail about the native tribes that were encountered by the English and how they have misinterpreted throughout history. The author explains how the situation in Roanoke devolved for the English colonists and how that impacted the local tribes. He explains the arrival of John White and the baptism of Manteo. Dawson finishes by dispelling myths, putting the legend into context and answering the question – what actually happened to the Lost Colony of Roanoke?HOST: Rob MellonFEATURED BREW: Hazy Little Thing IPA, Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, CA and NCBOOK: The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island (Scott Dawson)https://www.amazon.com/Lost-Colony-Hatteras-Island/dp/1467144339MUSIC: Bones Forkhttps://bonesfork.com/

In which historian Scott Dawson tells the "Lost Colony" story based upon primary sources and archaeological evidence found on Hatteras Island, NC.

Historian and author Scott Dawson joins Tim to talk about his team's discovery of what actually happened to the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island on the Outer Banks. He has spent the past 11 years working with a team of archaeologists, historians, botanists and geologists to try to uncover the truth behind the story of the Lost Colony. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/The_Lost_Colony__auphonic.mp3 It was August of 1590, and Englishman John White was about to return to the Roanoke Colony in the Americas, where he had been named governor three years earlier. John was among 115 English settlers who landed at Roanoke Island off the coast of what we now know as North Carolina in the Outer Banks region. After the group settled in Roanoke, John had sailed back to England to collect a load of supplies the settlers would need. He would have returned to Roanoke Island sooner, but England's war with Spain complicated things. So, now, three years later, John is about to return to Roanoke, where he last saw his wife and daughter, along with his granddaughter, and the other settlers. Then something unexpected happens. When John White arrives at the colony, he finds no one. Not a single person is there to greet him. Not a trace. One clue, however, would prove to be the key to unlocking this mystery over 400 years later. On a wooden post, one word was carved.  It said “Croatoan,” which is the name of a local native American tribe, and the name of an island south of Roanoke where the Croatoans lived. Those are the facts we've known until now. Scott Dawson has studied this mystery more than most and decided to get some answers for himself.

In 1585 a group of about 100 English settlers led by John White landed on Roanoke Island off the coast of North Carolina in the US. Yet when White returned to the colony with supplies from England in 1590 the colonists had vanished leaving only the word “Croatoan” carved on colony’s barrier wall So what happened to them? Scott Dawson is the author of The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island

Having been considered lost for centuries, and a huge mystery for historians, our guest today believes he has located the final resting place of the Lost Colony, and indeed, has uncovered artifacts that suggest they were never lost in the first place. Today we welcome Scott Dawson, archaeologist and author of The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island to tell the story of Roanoke Colony that so captured the imagination of Shakespeare’s England in the 1580s, as well as our own imagination into the 21st century, and to tell us about what he has found on Hatteras Island that leads him to believe this colony which once was lost, has now been found

On this week's Saturday Morning Short Stack Series, Maggie tells Jasmin the story of the Lost Colony of Roanoke and how new evidence uncovered by the Croatoan Archaeological Society shows it was never really lost at all.

A warning of something dangerous, an oman of sorts, or perhaps simply a wandering spirit of a lost individual; we have the Grey Man of Hatteras Island. A mysterious figure that seems to stroll the beaches of the isle whenever there is a coming storm, and becoming a sort of beacon of warning for the island's residents. This strange being has grown to be a local legend and commonplace within the region, yet who or what the Grey Man is still remains a mystery to this day. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Support the Podcast with Patreon - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email: realmofunknown@gmail.com Twitter: @RealmOfUnknown Instagram: @realmofunknown - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Intro and Outro music is created by Creepy Regrets by AnMo --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/realmofunknown/message

Was the Lost Colony of Roanoke never really lost at all?The legend of the Lost Colony has been captivating imaginations for nearly a century. When they left Roanoke Island, where did they go? What is the meaning of the mysterious word Croatoan? In the sixteenth century, Croatoan was the name of an island to the south 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. Archaeologists from the University of Bristol, working with local residents through the Croatoan Archaeological Society, have uncovered tantalizing clues to the fate of the colony. Hatteras native and amateur archaeologist Scott Dawson compiles what scholars know about the Lost Colony along with what scholars have found beneath the soil of Hatteras.

Valid hypotheses about the Lost Colony of 1587 on Roanoke Island have existed since the settlers' disappearance.   In 1603, Bartholomew Gilbert attempted the last contemporary expedition to locate the colonists, but his search ended with the death of himself and four crewmen at the hands of Algonquian natives.  John Smith, an influential leader of the Jamestown Colony of 1607, had heard stories from Native American chiefs about villages where some of the men wore European-style clothing.  His search efforts would come up empty-handed, except for producing a map showing the locations of the suspected communities with walled housing.  It wasn't until 1701 with John Lawson's expedition to the then Province of Carolina that a European exploration would again check the Roanoke site along with the Croatoan area, which became Hatteras Island.  Lawson's examination of Roanoke yielded few clues except for the ruins of a fort and some English items.  His meeting with the Hatteras natives, however, provided a curious revelation: some of the Hatteras tribal members had gray eyes and claimed a few of their ancestors were white.  After Lawson's search, with inconclusive evidence and no forensic methodology at the time, interest in the Lost Colony's fate faded over the decades.  In the 430 years since the colonist's disappearance, hypotheses ranging from massacre and conspiracy to assimilation have remained unprovable.  Even with tantalizing finds through recent archaeology and DNA research, we are still one conclusive discovery away from declaring the story of the Lost Colony of Roanoke, a "Mystery Solved!"

On this episode of the Life in the Carolinas podcast, we are joined by Steve Nelson, Owner of The Inn on Pamlico Sound boutique hotel. Steve grew up in New Jersey and had a prominent career in Manhattan for many years, but it was not until the first time he vacationed on Hatteras Island that he finally felt that he was at home. Before leaving the island from that first vacation, he had purchased a beach house and knew that he would be spending a lot of time “at home.” Within 2 years of that first trip to Hatteras, Steve was living in that beach house full-time and telecommuting to work whenever necessary, but he knew that he and his family needed a change of pace. His epiphany came on a late-night drive home from the airport when he realized that the homey but classy boutique hotels that he frequented during his work travels across North America and Europe would be a perfect fit for the Hatteras community. He was committed to steering clear of the clientele that the current inns and bed-and-breakfasts in the area attracted, and he knew that creating a unique boutique hotel experience could boost tourism to the island and provide full-time jobs with benefits for dozens of locals. In 2004, Steve opened The Inn on Pamlico Sound as a test with just 5 rooms, and the next year, all 12 rooms were available, and the Inn was up and running. With a lot of support from the community, especially 2 veteran innkeepers, Steve and his team created the boutique hotel experience that had been dreaming of. To this day, they do not invest in any paid advertising, but rely solely on organic marketing: online reviews, media publicity, and word of mouth. The staff at the Inn are extremely loyal and have grown to be a family community, much like the larger community on the island that they are a part of. One of the things that makes Hatteras Island unique is the generational culture: the native residents typically stay on the island for life, and some of them go back 7 or 8 generations of living on the island. This means that the residents of this small community essentially all do life together, just like their parents, their grandparents, and so on did. Their roots are very deep, and though they are accepting of outsiders, it is common for the native residents to remain distant in their relationships with non-natives for several years because they are committed to having lifelong friendships. Steve experienced this dynamic as he integrated into the community, and he has a higher appreciation and understanding of the culture, which strengthens his commitment to investing in the next generation of Hatteras Island residents.   For more information: Life In The Carolinas TV segment on Pamlico Sound https://youtu.be/Umpe3fpQFtU http://innonpamlicosound.com/ https://www.facebook.com/Innonpamlicosound/ https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g48993-d80404-Reviews-The_Inn_on_Pamlico_Sound-Buxton_Hatteras_Island_Outer_Banks_North_Carolina.html https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/3449967/inn-at-pamlico-sound/ https://www.pinterest.com/innpamlicosound/ https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-inn-on-pamlico-sound-buxton

North Carolina’s Outer Banks offers everything from open-sea beaches, theatre, wildlife preserves and popular shipwreck diving sites to down home cooking and history. On today’s show we explore these barrier islands and put a spotlight on Thailand and Indonesia. The Outer Bank’s Roanoke Island was the site of the first English settlement in the New World. A local popular theatrical production called “The Lost Colony” celebrates the birth of Virginia Dare, the first English child born in America. The Lost Colony is America’s longest running outdoor symphonic drama. We’re given a behind the scenes look at this epic drama that has drawn theatre goers every year since 1937. Before the farm-to-table and locally-source movement in food there was Owens Restaurant leading the way. An Outer Banks institution, Owens is North Carolina’s oldest family-owned restaurant having been owned and operated by the same family since 1946. During a visit, we met Clara “Peaches” Woodard, a member of the fourth generation of Owens restaurateurs. Peaches treated us to tastings of some popular family recipes while she shared the restaurant’s history and art collections. A 1937 Act of Congress established Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge as a place for wildlife and waterfowl conservation. Pea Island is located on the Outer Bank’s Hatteras Island and is surrounded by sand dunes, marshes, ponds and creeks. The Wildlife Refuge is home to migratory birds, sea turtles and more. We joined Cindy Heffley of the US Fish and Wildlife Service on a nature walk through the Refuge. Before the U.S. Coast Guard there was the U.S. Life-Saving Service protecting the shores. One of the most comprehensive Life-Saving station sites still in existence, the Chicamoacomico Life-Saving Station Historic Site and Museum, is a unique living history attraction. The only one of its kind in North Carolina, this Outer Bank’s museum houses artifacts and teaches the history of the predecessor to today’s U.S. Coast Guard. The museum’s John Griffin shares some of the inspiring stories that made Chicamoacomico legendary.

On July 23, 2009, Ray McAllister delivered a Banner Lecture entitled "Hatteras Island: Keeper of the Outer Banks." The Outer Banks have enticed Virginians with the lure of sun, sky, and sea for generations. Despite this idyllic appeal, these once-isolated barrier islands have also witnessed a turbulent past. Pirates, hurricanes, shipwrecks, and U-boats all make their appearance in the varied story of the Outer Banks. Ray McAllister, an award-winning former Richmond Times Dispatch columnist, has become the established chronicler of coastal North Carolina with his latest volume on Hatteras, which follows earlier books on Wrightsville Beach and Topsail Island.
