52:59 Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey by Homer. but on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly! Out to sea again!'

My men were mutinous, fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after sheep they butchered by the surf, and shambling cattle, feasting,—while fugitives went inland, running to call to arms the main force of Cicones. How does this excerpt prove that Odysseus’s men caused their own problems? by describing their neglect of orders by explaining their military strategy by showing their physical weaknesses by illustrating their cruelty to one another

Answer:

By describing their neglect of orders

Explanation:

The first line of the excerpt shows the order that was given to the Odysseus men. "but on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly! Out to sea again!' ". But the succeeding lines reveal that instead of the Odysseus men to obey this order given to them, they were busy feasting and merrying. They were drinking wine and feasting on sheep and cattle. The writer described them as "mutinous" and "fools" because of this act.

By the time they were engaging in this careless acts, the fugitives were calling to arms the force of Circones.

Answer:

by describing their neglect of orders
