The body of water that separates Roanoke Island from the island of the Croatoan Indians is known as the Croatan Sound. This shallow estuarine area played a significant role in the history of the Roanoke Colony. The Croatoan Indians, who were indigenous to the region, inhabited the nearby islands, including Hatteras Island.
There is no concrete evidence that the Croatan Indians specifically attacked Roanoke Island. The fate of the Lost Colony of Roanoke remains mysterious, with possibilities ranging from assimilation with local tribes to violent conflict. However, relationships between the English settlers and Native Americans in the region were complicated, and there were likely various factors that could have contributed to hostilities or misunderstandings.
