Description

Bloody Pond at Shiloh National Military Park, located in Hardin County Tennessee, was the scene of heavy fighting on both days of the battle which took place in April of 1862.

The Battle of Shiloh was, at its time, the bloodiest conflict this nation had seen.

This shallow pond drew the weary and wounded soldiers of both armies who were engaged in heavy fighting nearby. Some crawled here for their last drink. Observers after the battle reported that the pond was littered with dead soldiers and horses.
Blood had turned the water a bloody red color.

  "And he said, What hast thou done?
the voice of thy brother's blood
crieth unto me from the ground." 
Genesis 4:10
