The Arawaks were the Native Americans that met Columbus when he landed.

Christopher Columbus met the Native Indians when he reached America.
Columbus was trying to get to India when he ran into North America. He thought that he had arrived in India, so he referred to the Native Americans as Indians. AND, we still refer to them as such.

Columbus called Native Americans Indians. The story is that Columbus thought he had reached India, and Indians would be the native inhabitants. By the time Columbus realized that he was not in India, the name had already stuck.
This answer depends on who you define as Native Americans, as the term is normally used that is only the native tribes located in what is today called America. Columbus never touched foot in the United States (america), his travels were limited to the Caribbean, central and south america. When he first landed in Guanahani (modern day San Salvador Island) he encountered the Lucayan, Taino or Arawak peoples.
Although the land that Christopher Columbus discovered and claimed for Spain was actually part of the "New World", he believed that these new lands were part of southern and eastern Asia. Even until his death, Columbus insisted these new lands were part of Asia, despite evidence from other European explorations which suggested these lands were actually part of the "New World".
Because the beans were the local currency. Yum!
He wrote in his diary that he had met the Native people of Hispanolia and thought they would make good slaves. He wasn't sure they were human and was positive they were inferior.
