← HistoryDuring the siege of Alesia, which outcome occurred following Caesar’s construction of a double ring of fortifications?
A)Reduced Gallic resupply effectiveness✓
B)Simplified direct Roman assault
C)Increased Roman troop desertion
D)Compromised internal Roman communication
💡 Explanation
Siege fortifications reduced resupply because *circumvallation* and thus cutting off external supply routes to Alesia’s defenders was in effect; therefore logistical attrition broke the Gallic resolve rather than direct confrontation, rather than troops attacking head on.
