History

Which consequence resulted from the extensive undercutting during a Roman siege?

A)Torsion catapult range increased vastly
B)Defensive counter-mine's rapid structural collapse
C)Sudden undermining tower structural failure
D)Rapid spread of tunnel suffocation

💡 Explanation

When the undersoil and walls under siege towers were undercut, Soil Liquefaction quickly eroded internal strength because saturated soil lost effective stress; therefore the tower collapsed suddenly and unexpectedly, rather than experiencing a slow settling.
