Columbus and his sailors met the Arawaks on the shore and the Arawaks brought them things and traded with them, only to be taken advantage of by Columbus and some were taken by force so Columbus could gain knowledge of the land.

He left 39 crew members there to find and store gold. At one part of this island he got in a fight with a couple of Indians because they refused to trade as many bows and arrows as he wanted.

He put them in guarded pens, then picked 500 of the best of them to load onto his ships. 200 died on the route to Spain. The ones who arrived alive in Spain were put up for sale. ]]> 2020-09-19 02:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760619094 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760623009 Many of the slaves Columbus brought to Spain died in captivity, so to pay back those who invested in his adventures, he went to the providence of Ciaco on Haiti and ordered those 14 years and older to collect a certain amount of gold every three months. When they brought the gold, they were given copper tokens to wear. Indians that didn't have copper tokens had their hands cut off. Those who fled from him were hunted down and killed. ]]> 2020-09-19 02:13:57 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760623009 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760701245 Arawaks put together an army of resistance and faced Spaniards.When Spaniards took prisoners they hung or burned them to death. Mass suicides began among the Arawaks with cassava poison. In two years, half of the 250,000 Indians on Haiti were dead. ]]> 2020-09-19 04:37:16 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760701245 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760706281 Fifty thousand Indians left. ]]> 2020-09-19 04:48:20 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760706281 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760706635 500 Indians left.]]> 2020-09-19 04:49:01 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760706635 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760706999 No original Arawaks or their descendants are on Haiti. ]]> 2020-09-19 04:49:59 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760706999 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760708124 An Indian stole a small silver cup from him and he sacked and burned down their whole village. ]]> 2020-09-19 04:52:41 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760708124 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760708861 Some English settlers ran off from Jamestown to join the Indians because of a "starving time" in the Colonies. When it was summer the Governor of Jamestown sent a messenger to ask Powhatan to return the runaways, and soldiers were sent out to "take revenge" on them. 15 or 16 Indians were killed, their houses were burned down, their crops were destroyed,and the queen and her children were killed. ]]> 2020-09-19 04:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760708861 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760715978 Indians were alarmed that English settlements kept growing and they decided to try to take the English out for good. They went on a rampage and killed 347 people. From that point on it was total war between the Indians and English. ]]> 2020-09-19 05:10:08 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760715978 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760718529 The English decided to exterminate the Indians because they couldn't enslave them and couldn't live with them. The English pretended to have peaceful intentions with the Indians then just before the harvest they killed as many Indians as they could and burned all of their corn. ]]> 2020-09-19 05:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760718529 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760722464 The Puritans were in an uneasy relationship with the Pequots. The Puritans wanted the Indians out of the way; they wanted their land. The Puritans used the murder of a white trader, Indian-Kidnapper, a troublemaker, and the Bible as excuses to go to war with the Pequots. Some people left Boston to attack the Narraganselt Indians on Block Island, who were grouped with Pequot Indians. The English killed some Indians, and went from village to village destroying crops. Then they sailed back to mainland and raided the Pequot villages that were along the coast, destroying their crops as well. Then, war with the Pequots began and massacres happened on both sides. The English terrorized the Indians by burning down their homes and etc. instead of just killing them cause it was less risky and they wanted to terrorize them. The Indians that did escape the fires were slain with a sword, hewed to pieces, or rune throw with their own rapiers. 400 were destroyed around this time. ]]> 2020-09-19 05:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760722464 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760730224 The Puritans and Indians fought again. It was the Wampanoag Indians this time. They were in the way of the Puritans, and they traded some of their land with people outside of the Massachusetts Bay colony. The English finally found an excuse to go to war with the Wampanoags when Metacom became chief of the Wampanoags and they attributed the murder of Wamsulta (Metacom's Brother) to him. The English started the war to take their land. They were the ones who attacked first but claimed they attacked for preventive purposes. The Puritans wanted the war yet the normal Englishmen did not and they refused to fight often. The Indians didn't want the war either but yet they kept fighting each other. The war ended in 1676 and the English won but they lost 600 men and the Indians lost 3,000 men but kept raiding the English after the war. The English tried a softer approach to their attacks but soon they were back to fighting. ]]> 2020-09-19 05:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760730224 aloraporter https://padlet.com/aloraporter/6mpmf1eyc4w21dp0/wish/760736897 By 1764 there were only 313 Indians left in Martha's Vineyard.
