The expression "Gone to Croatoan" refers to the idea of refuting modern society and returning to Paleolithic (in the case of the Roanoke settlers: Indian) society. The image of a feral dog is helpful when considering the Croatoan phenomenon: the transition from tamed to untamed. The implications are broader among human products of Neolithic society than among formerly domesticated animals. Among humans the transition is conscious.
