Best Answer

He didn't discover anything. Ralegh never came to Roanoke Island. He was largely responsible for the organization and formation of the Roanoke voyages, but he did not participate in any of the four trips to this part of the New World. It is a common misconception that he traveled to Roanoke Island.
