Archaeologists say an unearthed copper earring likely came from European explorers who made up part of the "Lost Colony" in modern-day Roanoke Island, North Carolina. https://www.13newsnow.com/article/news/local/north-carolina/outer-banks/copper-earring-roanoke-island-lost-colony-roanoac/291-3ce0e7cc-d6c0-4e35-bf83-2abc1f5da155
I love the notion that the “lost colony” of Roanoke simply re-located.

The implication would be that not only did they relocate to Hatteras, they considered themselves immigrants and not colonists, and they assimilated.
