		These tests have confirmed that much of the town of Croatan, capital of the chiefdom, is still intact under the modern sand dunes which cover it to depths ranging from 20 centimeters to about 5 meters.
		While we are now sure that the Croatan occupation of the site extends to the first decades of the 1700s, it is hoped that future excavations will reveal artifacts specific to the late 1500s and contemporary with the Roanoke colony.

	Lumbee Language and the Lumbee Indian Culture (Croatan, Croatoans, Pamlico, Carolina Algonquian)
		English was used extensively among the Lumbee tribe, both as a practical lingua franca and also as a first language (due to intermarriage with English speakers), and the original Lumbee languages fell into disuse and finally extinction.
		This supposedly mysterious carving has inspired many science-fiction books and conspiracy theories since that time, but in fact it was the name of an island belonging to some friendly Indians, and the colonists probably simply moved in with them when their food supplies ran low.
		Lumbee historian Adolph Dial made the case that the Croatans and their English guests were among the ancestors of today's Lumbee Indians, who resurfaced some 50 years later speaking English, practicing Christianity, and sporting the same last names many of the colonists had brought with them.

	RPGnet: Review of Croatan Song
		Croatan Song is a sourcebook for pre-Columbian North America in the World of Darkness.
		To be honest, I'm not even sure if the Mound Builders are peoples of Mexico and further south who have traveled north, or the Kinfolk the Garou brought with them, or a mix of the two, although the impression I got was the latter.
		That's not much of a consolation, however, since the Croatan's conflict with the Mound Builders is definitely the most interesting development of the Pure Lands history since it also serves as a foreshadowing of the Croatan's fall as well.

		This foreshadowed one of the great mysteries of North America, Roanoke's so-called "Lost Colony" of 90 men, 17 women and 9 children, founded in 1587 and discovered to be missing in 1590, but for the word "Croatan" carved on a post.
		Although both the English and the Spanish searched for clues to the colony's disappearance for many years, the mystery has never been solved.

	TAZ: "Gone to Croatan"
		We were taught in elementary school that the first settlements in Roanoke failed; the colonists disappeared, leaving behind them only the cryptic message "Gone To Croatan." Later reports of "grey-eyed Indians" were dismissed as legend.
		However, "Croatan" was not some Eldorado; it was the name of a neighboring tribe of friendly Indians.
		Essentially the Moors and Ramapaughs rejected the "diachronic" or historical explanation of their origins in favor of a "synchronic" self-identity based on a "myth" of Indian adoption.
