Enye yezinto eziyinqaba kunazo zonke emlandweni waseMelika kwakuyi "I-Lost Colony" yeRoanoke. Ngo-1585, uSir Walter Raleigh waletha iqembu lamaKolononi, ahlala eRoanoke Island, ogwini olusenyakatho-mpumalanga yeNorth Carolina. Leli qembu lokuqala lamakholoni lashiya iRoanoke ngo-1586 futhi yabuyela eNgilandi. Iqembu lesibili lafika ngo-1587 futhi laqala ukuhlala isiNgisi ezweni elisha.
Ngalolo nyaka ingane yokuqala yabazali abangamaNgisi yazalwa emhlabathini waseMelika. Igama lakhe kwakunguVirginia Dare. Ngesikhathi isikhathi esengeziwe esivela eNgilandi sithola iminyaka emine kamuva, lonke iqembu labahlali laliye laphela. Kwenzekani kuVirginia Dare namalungu "I-Lost Colony" yeRoanoke?
I-Colonel Lost
Ngesikhathi i-Roanoke yokuqala ikoloni isungulwa, ihlose ukudiliza u-Elizabeth I futhi ibeke isihlalo sobukhosi saseNgilandi uMariya WamaKatolika waseScotland. Ezinyangeni ezimbalwa kokubulawa kukaMariya ngoFebruwari ka-1587, ikholomu yokugcina kaSir Walter Raleigh yaya ezweni elisha. Ekhulunywe nguMbusi uJohn White, amadoda angu-117, abesifazane nabantwana basuka eNgilandi ngoMeyi 8, 1587. Ngomshayeli womkhumbi othintekayo ngenkathi yehlobo lehlobo lonyaka, abaqolontiya baphoqeleka ukuba bavele eRoanoke Island, esikhundleni sokuba bahambe kude nakwase-Roanoke Island ukuya e-Chesapeake Bay.
Kusukela ekuqaleni, abahlali bahlushwa ukuntuleka kokudla kanye nempahla futhi babe nesikhathi esinzima ukuhlala ndawonye ngokuthula namaMelika aseMelika. Ngo-Agasti 27 ka-1587, uJohn White, owayeqokwe umbusi waseRoanoke, washiya indawo yakhe futhi wabuyela eNgilandi ukuze athole izinto. Ikhodi eyimfihlo yayiye yasebenza nabakholoni ukuze uma bephuma eRoanoke Island, babezofaka indawo yabo entsha emthini obonakalayo noma ngokuthunyelwe.
Uma ukuhanjiswa kwakudingeka kwenziwe ngenxa yokuhlasela, kungaba ngamaNdiya noma amaSpanish, kwakufanele baveze ngalezi zincwadi noma babike isignali yokucindezeleka ngendlela yesiphambano saseMalta.
Ngaphambi kokuba ikoloni ivuselelwe, impi yayiphume phakathi kweNgilandi neSpain. U-White akazange akwazi ukubuyela eRoanoke Island kuze kufike ngo-1590, ngaleso sikhathi wathola indawo yokuhlala. Imidwebo emibili yanikeza izinkomba kuphela mayelana nokuphela kwamakholoni: "Cro" yayiqoshwe kwenye yezihlahla futhi "iCroatan" yayiqoshwe emaphoyiseni. I-Croatan (igama lesiNdiya elithi "Hatteras") lalibizwa isiqhingi esiseduze, kepha akukho mkhondo wabahlali ababekhona lapho noma kwenye indawo. Iziphepho zavimbela ukucinga okuqhubekayo, futhi izindiza ezincane zabuyela eNgilandi, zishiya imfihlakalo ye "The Lost Colony."
Ihlanganisiwe Emfihlakalo
Kuze kube yilolu suku, akekho owaziyo lapho ikholoni elahlekile eya khona, noma kwenzekani kubo. Kunesivumelwano esivamile sokuthi akukho okwanele okuthunyelwe ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zabakoloni ngaphambi kokuba ukuhlala kungenele ngokwanele. UDkt. David B. Quinn, omunye weziphathimandla ezihlonishwayo eLost Colony, ukholelwa ukuthi iningi lamakoloni lahamba ngaphesheya olwandle oluseningizimu yeCheesapeake, lapho kamuva labulawa khona amaNdiya asePowhatan.
I-Fort Raleigh National Historic Site kazwelonke kazwelonke kazwelonke ikhumbula imizamo yokuqala yesiNgisi ekoloneni iNew World, kufaka phakathi "i-Lost Colony." Eyasungulwa ngo-1941, i-park ye-513-acre ihlanganisa ukulondolozwa kwamaNative American Culture, i-American Civil War, i-Freedman's Colony kanye nemisebenzi yophiko lomsakazo, uReginald Fessenden.
