Archaeologists are uncovering evidence of the first European settlement in the Carolinas
In 1567, Spanish soldiers followed Indian trails and built a fort in the middle of the village of Joara, in what would become the North Carolina foothills. Indians eventually burned down the fort and killed the soldiers. The location remained a mystery until archaeologists found indisputable evidence of the first inland European settlement in the Carolinas.
