The Dare Stones

Had enough mystery yet?  I think we can handle a little more, don't you?  Explorers have spotted some stones in our own nature trail area behind the school.  Archaeologists have their hands full on other sites, so it's up to us to excavate and translate the stones.  Be careful...and good luck.

Here is another online reference to study, as well:  The Dare Stones (Brenau University).

What Happened?

Here are some questions for you to answer as we watch this video from the History Channel.  Keep in mind that history is a mystery.  

• Who was Virginia Dare?
• Where is Croatoan?
  
• Who was John White?
  
• Who was Sir Walter Raleigh​?
