While precise numbers of decapitations during the American Civil War are difficult to ascertain, it is estimated that decapitations were relatively rare compared to other forms of battlefield deaths. Some reports indicate that decapitations did occur, primarily as a result of cavalry charges and brutal close combat, but they were not a common statistic in military records. Overall, the Civil War was marked by high casualties, with over 600,000 soldiers dying from various causes, including combat, disease, and injury.
