The colonists of Jamestown had a tough time because of the poor planning and people they had brought. For example, according to Doc C it shows 47 gentlemen out of the original 110 they had brought. This is 42% of the original settlers and this 42% takes up many spots on the ships for useful people like farmers and laborers. (Doc C.)

But even if they did have the correct people to get the jobs done they still would have had to work with the little water they had somehow. According to Doc A it says “Filth introduced into the river tended to fester” (Doc A.) Even if they did store water in a well they would still have to deal with the rising water levels that were vulnerable to saltwater intrusion. This shows that the water they had was infected by their own waste and made water unsanitary (Doc A.)

One reason they disappeared was because they had bad hygiene. They had bad hygiene because the same water though the lake that they drank out of is where they were putting their human waste. This led to them poisoning the water and their numbers shriveling. The biggest problem with what happened is that they didn't even know what was happening to them. So this led to them not stopping what they were doing and led them to have smaller numbers due to them not knowing what they were doing. In document A, 4th questions answer¨It makes floods dirty, salty, and poisoned them.

In the winter of 1609, life was not good for the people living in Jamestown, of the 400 settlers who moved there; only 61 survived to see the end of 1610. That is because in the time of 1609-1610 was known to be called the starving time, because food was scarce and that they were doing everything they could to not eat each other. They ate horses, cats, rats, even shoe leather, even one man was executed for killing his wife to heat her. Although there are many times that crime happened, a recent discovery of a 14 year old girl's bones was found. Before they found her bones they did not think that anyone was killed to be eaten, but all over her bones they found teeth marks of the people eating her, proving that there was cannibalism.

The last reason they died was that they had barely any workers. Great Britain did send a lot of people, but most of the people they sent were rich people. With only rich people at Jamestown, that ment that there were not a lot of workers there meaning work would not be done, meaning that it was hard to have a house built, or food on the table for everyone. The problem with this is that they could not tell Great Britain to stop sending people because they didn't have people to make a ship to tell them to stop sending people, making it a death trap.

It was getting colder day by day as winter was coming sooner than expected. People were getting hungry but there was not enough food to feed everyone. They called this time the “Starving Time”. There would be no food left for the colonists to eat during the winter so, some colonists set off to trade with the natives for food. Instead the colonists found that the natives were not eager to trade what little food was available, and instead, tried convincing the natives to trade food through the use of force. According to Jamestown Research Documents, it states that, “Some harsh and cruel dealing by cutting off two of the Salvage's heads and other extremities” (Doc D). This paints the picture of colonists who were desperate for survival. This evidence shows that no matter if the Indians went hungry the colonists would kill them if they did not give them the food the colonists needed. The food that the Indians gave to the colonists did not even last the whole winter for the colonists and only 40 men ended up living at the end of the winter.

With few of the colonists who had knowledge of how to work the land to grow and hunt for food, many did not know how to survive and most were unprepared for the harsh environment of the New World. According to Jamestown Research Documents, “110 men arrived in May 1607 and 47 of the men were gentlemen” (Doc C).This evidence shows that most of the men had no clue of what they were doing. The gentlemen have never touched a tool in their lives and now they are forced to learn how to use their hands, by themselves because none have worked a day in their lives.

One of the reasons why Jamestown is no longer here is because of the lack of clean water. According to the Library of Congress, Jamestown had  water, but it was salty. Jamestown’s water was so salty that if the citizens drank it they would dehydrate and die. Without water, people can only live 3 days. Not only would the salty water kill the people of Jamestown but also the bad water made them unable to grow crops.

As stated previously, Jamestown didn’t have much clean water therefore they didn’t have many crops and that means they didn't have food. The people not having much food is the second reason why Jamestown wiped out. Since the people in Jamestown couldn’t grow crops, they started eating dogs, horses, and their friends. ｔthe site that I forgot,but it's somewhere in wikapidia  explains that when Jamestown was doing well the people of Jamestown usually caught a dolphin, fish,or animal, but since they ate too much, they eventually ran out of food. There were squirrels, which they could catch and eat, but it was not enough food for all the people that lived in Jamestown. Therefore, the people of Jamestown starved and that is one reason why Jamestown failed.

The first reason that so many settlers died in JameTown’s was from Conflict with Native Americans. Francis West and 36 men sailed through Chesapeake Bay to try to trade for corn with the Patawomeke Indians. Document D describes how trading did not go well and ended in death for some Native Americans. According to Documents D, it  shows how they treated them. One sentence from Document D states... “some harshe and [cruel] dealing by cutting two of the Savages heads and other extremetyes,” This evidence shows how the settler treated the Native Americans. With the settlers treating the Natives like this, at some point they would strike back.

This evidence shows that this will cause a lot of problems for the settlers along the road such as lack of experience, Bad judgment, not enough resources to survive, lack of teamwork and all these together cause a lot of conflict. This can cause conflict because these settlers are like wild animals fighting for survival and they will do anything to live. It even got to the point where some would cut off limbs and heads of Natives when they would not trade. Yes you heard that right, these settlers went to extreme measures to survive.

The Indians weren’t willing to work with the settlers, both because they were kicked out of their own land by them, and they needed the food they gathered to survive. This forced the  settlers had to resort to extreme measures. In Document D, a Crew went looking to “trade” for food with the Indians, and when the Indians said no to their request, the settlers resorted to extreme methods. The indians only became cooperative by “cutting of towe’ of the savages heads," as said in Document D.
