Indians are indigenous people. (There is some discussion that the term Indians for the people of North America actually came from a misunderstanding and mispronounciation of the word "indigians"--- and not from an idea that the Americas were actually India.) Indigenous means that they were the native people-- and really only means that they had been in America for many generations. Puritans were English people who emigrated to North America. The English government was actually happy to see them go to America where they would cause less trouble, and begin development in America.
