    A

    Explanation:

    The settlers, who arrived in 1587, disappeared in 1590, leaving behind only two clues: the words "Croatoan" carved into a fort's gatepost and "Cro" etched into a tree. Theories about the disappearance have ranged from an annihilating disease to a violent rampage by local Native American tribes

    D) No one knows what occurred to Roanoke Island colony. It is still a mystery.

    Explanation:

    The colony of the Roanoke was the first English colony that settled in Northern America before it mysteriously disappeared. They first Roanoke settlers arrived in 1584 to prepare the place for future settlers while the second group arrived in 1585 had scientific and military knowledge.

    In 1587, they disappeared with no information documented about their disappearance. Speculation has it they were either killed in battles or by diseases or the group just dispersed and went to different places running away from whatever it is that threatened them.
