The "starving time" was the winter of 1609–1610 when James Fort was besieged by Powhatan Indian warriors, there was a lack of food, the leadership was weakened, and two out of every three colonists perished.

<h3>What is starving time?</h3>

In the winter of 1609–1610, Jamestown in the Colony experienced a hunger crisis known as "The Starving Time." At the start of the winter, Jamestown had roughly 500 residents. However, by the time spring came, only 61 people were still alive.

The winter of 1609–1610 is known as "The Starving Time," because it was during this time when around three-quarters of the English colonists in  perished from malnutrition or diseases associated with it.

What is a dog tag and why did children wear them in the 50's
avanturin [10]
This kind of horrific...just a warning. Kids would be given dog tags as a sign of identification. At that time, the nuclear war was taking place. Parents would have their kids wear dog tags so that if they died, they would be able to identify the children's bodies.
