yes, it says after the santa maria (columbus' ship) hit a under water reef they shot it down with cannons -after everyone was off. They did this because columbus was too ashamed to see his ship destroyed.

Yes. Columbus fired the cannon ball as a warning to the natives not to harm the settlers he had leave behind in Hispaniola. Upon his return though fighting had broken out between the Spaniards and the native Tainos, and all the settlers had been killed. Columbus who always sided with the Indians did not follow up on his threat and did not seek vengeance.
