Christopher Columbus tortured and killed many Native Americans (Taino people) when he landed his three ships in the West Indies. Also he made some of them slaves. The slaves are believed to have rebelled against him until help from Spain arrived.

∙ 13y agoChristopher Columbus treated the natives (Taino Indians) very poorly. Columbus killed many Taino people. He also ordered every Taino at the age 14 and older to find him gold. The poor Tainos looked, and looked but couldn't find enough gold. For not finding enough gold, Columbus punished the Tainos, and cut off their hands, and make them be slaves. Christopher Columbus was a very mean and scary person to the Taino Indians. The Tainos thought of Columbus as a villain coming to their land.
