Soon after starting a colony, a group of the colonists left to go back to England for more supplies. Upon their return, they found the settlement abandoned. The only trace was the word "Croatan", the name of the neighboring tribe of Indians.

There are many speculations of what could have happened. Example are: Roanoke was destroyed by a Natural Disaster(i.e. Tsunami, Hurricane), the Croatans killed the entire colony. However, if the destruction was from natural disaster, then why would they carve the word "Croatan" into the tree? If the colony was killed by Croatans, then why did they only find the bones of one man? The last possibility and most excepted one is that the colonists relocated to Croatan Island and eventually merged into Indian Culture.

7. From head to tail, the cartoon shows the snake in pieces each one representing a colony. These colonies were part of the rebellion against Britain. The phrase under the picture says, "Join or Die." This means that if the rest of the Colonies do not join with the rest, they will die.
