Secret in 400-year-old map may have finally solved the mystery of Roanoke

NYP

What was lost is now found.

Researchers believe they might have cracked the case of the lost colony of Roanoke — a great American mystery that has eluded historians for centuries.

The caper concerns a group of some 100 British settlers who landed on Roanoke Island off North Carolina in the 16th century to establish an English foothold in the New World, Popular Mechanics reported.

Their whereabouts baffled historians for centuries until 2012 when experts with the British Museum analyzed the 400-year-old “La Virginea Pars” map drawn by one of the colonists named John White, finding that the parchment displayed the location where they may have ended up, Great Britain News reported.

  1. So where are the British NOW?

    Everyone in England is now dark complected and worships the violent prophet of a blashpemous god.

    But of that race of pale, intrepid seafarers who once conquered all the known world, nothing remains but servile mice offering up their labor, their wives, even their own children for sacrifice at the altar of racial politics.

    Solve THAT mystery if you can…

  2. What has happened and is happening
    in not-so-great Britain (and most of Europe) is a 1400 year old effort to subjugate the population by immigration versus by military force.
    The end result is the same, the populations of many european countries are facing complete control by followers of the false prophet.
    Truly the enemy is within and gained (and gaining) control and subordinating native peoples, traditions, laws and morality.

    The U.S. should take heed, biden opened the floodgates for more radical islamists entering our country from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, Iraq, Africa and more than likely Iran.
    The enemy is in our gates.
    What is happening in Europe (intimidation, murders, attacks, grooming gangs, rapes, honor killings and terrorism) is occurring in the U.S.
    The biden administration and the heritage media has failed to identify crimes perpetrated by muslims, but report alleged claims of hate crimes.
    I trust the President Trump’s DOJ, Dept. of State, FBI, Homeland Security, DNI, and hopefully the legacy media will be unbiased and not be manipulated to become America’s Al Jazeera News Service.

    Trust your instincts.

  3. “The enemy is in our gates.”

    NO! “The barbarians are not at the gate. They are inside the gates, and have academic tenure, judicial appointments, government grants, and control of the movies, TV, and other media.” Thomas Sowell
