Summary
[edit]DescriptionBurning of Aquascogoc 1585.jpg |
English: An engraved illustration of Secotans fleeing the burning of Aquascogoc in 1585. English explorers visited several Secotan villages during Richard Grenville's expedition to establish a colony on Roanoke Island. After a silver cup was reported stolen, Grenville ordered a party to return to Aquascogoc (at what is now Belhaven, North Carolina) to demand its return. When the cup was not found, the English burned the village to the ground.
