Not to mention that Democritus postulated atomic theory in 430 BCE or thereabouts. So yeah the ancient Greeks knew about atoms - though of course they couldn’t prove it.
It's a tough Cannon ammunition lesson to have to learn the hard way. I'd put a lol, but it's really not funny. It's actually recorded that one of my Prussian relatives took a " shot to the neck" and survived. I assumed cannon shot, but maybe not. In 1724, at Chotusitz of all places. 😂

Did they even know what atoms were at the time of the Civil War?
Yes, the concept of small, 'indivisible' atoms had been around for about half a century by then.

The word Atom comes from the Ancient Greek word atomos meaning “uncuttable”
John Dalton early 19th century.
