Many relied on the meager rations that were available. Eventually as the siege set in, residents were forced to eat animals (cats, dogs, rats and birds)and to live in caves to escape the bombardment. The city surrendered to the Union Army afrer seven weeks of bombardment on July 4, 1863.

Hello!


During the siege, many residents of Vicksburg lived in caves to protect themselves from the constant bombings of the Union against the city from both the ground artillery and the naval artillery of the Union fleet, which was bombing from the Mississippi. In that siege they were gradually reduced to eating horses and mules, and then dogs, cats and rats.


I hope this can help you.

Regards!

Why did the rational way of thinking, taught by Aristotle almost die by the 300 AD?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Because by 300 AD, Christianity, which promoted religious thinking, instead of rational thinking, was already spreading over most of the Mediterranean World, which was the same as the Roman World, since the Roman Empire dominated the totality of the Mediterranean.

In fact, only 13 years later, in 313 AD, Constantine, the Roman Emperor, decreed the Edict of Milan, which made Christianity the official religion in the Roman Empire, starting the period of Christian dominance in most of Europe, which continues to this day.
