The colonists at Jamestown faced dire circumstances, including starvation and disease, which pushed them to extreme measures for survival, including cannibalism. While their actions can be viewed as desperate responses to an unprecedented crisis, the ethics of such measures are complex. Some might argue that survival instinct justifies their choices, while others may contend that there are moral limits to what one should do, even in dire situations. Ultimately, their actions underscore the harsh realities of early colonial life.

What did john smith do for people in the Jamestown colony?

During his 2 years in Jamestown he is responsible for the survival of the colony. As the colony's president from 1608-1609 he ruled fairly, but was firm. Regardless of rank everyone was expected to work for the common good. His bold leadership, military experience, and determination gave a measure of discipline to the dying dissolute colonists; his working with the Native Americans prevented starvation and his dispersal of the colony from unhealthy Jamestown lowered the Death Rate. In October of 1609 he was wounded by a gunpowder explosion and returned to England. After his return to England he promoted and wrote about the Americas and this contributed to people wanting to come to the America's.
