Ambrose's wife became the No. 1 suspect, but because she had no evidence, she was proven clean. In an attempt to find the theater tycoon, Canadian police have called on the spiritualists, but they have failed to produce results.

Legio IX Hispana became one of the most feared armies in Roman military history.(Illustration).

But in 109 AD, while expeditioning in what is now Scotland, the entire elite corps disappeared mysteriously.

Most historians believe that the disappearance (due to disintegration due to death on battle) of the elite army is not a mystery at all. However, because there is no evidence, every explanation becomes a legend.

One of the most worded legends of the time was that the army of thousands was annihilated by the mighty Scottish warriors in 117 AD.

This legend is also the subject of many cinematic works, books and television programs later. Because there is no archaeological evidence, the truth about the disappearance of the elite Roman army was never discovered.

Ironically, when they arrived, they faced strong opposition from indigenous people. John White then decided to return to England to ask for aid.

It took 3 years later, in 1590, that John White could return to Roanoke Island. The reality before his eyes had to be witnessed with great surprise: More than 100 people, from men, women, and children disappeared without trace.

What John White found was just the word "CROATOAN" engraved on a tree trunk. Given that it was a message from his compatriots before migrating to the nearby island of the same name, John White and the British army decided to look for it. However, sea storms prevented his good intentions before he returned to England shortly thereafter.

John White's return is synonymous with the fact that the "disappearance" of hundreds of British migrants has never been clarified. Do they really migrate to another island? Or was it destroyed by the natives from the beginning? These questions have always been left open for more than 400 years.
