The Death Rate at Jamestown, particularly during its early years from 1607 to 1610, was extremely high, with estimates suggesting that about 70% of the settlers died due to starvation, disease, and conflict with Indigenous peoples. The "Starving Time" in the winter of 1609-1610 was particularly devastating, with only about 60 of the original 500 settlers surviving by spring 1610. Overall, the harsh conditions and lack of resources contributed to one of the highest death rates among early European settlements in North America.
