Who replace the native west Indians who worked spanish plantation when they died off?

African slaves were brought in to replace the Native West Indians who died off working on Spanish plantations. This was due to the devastating effects of diseases brought by Europeans and harsh working conditions in the plantations.


Where there African slaves that were brought to replace native American slaves who died from disease or overwork?

Yes, there were instances where African slaves were brought to the Americas to replace Native American slaves who had died from disease or overwork. This happened particularly in regions where Native American populations had been decimated by European diseases and harsh working conditions. African slaves were seen as a more resilient and available labor force by European colonizers.


Is it true that African slaves were brought to replace native American slaves who died from disease or over work?

No, not true. The first African American slave arrived in the American colonies in 1619 and prior to that there were no slaves. The Spanish did attempt to make Southwestern Native Americans into slaves, but it didn't work out. When the English colonies began in 1607 with Jamestown there was no thought of using the Native Americans as slaves. The Northeastern tribes did not lend themselves to this type activity. Jamestown settled into an area of over 14,000 Native Americans and 8,000 miles of settlement/land and they were only 104 men, so if any slavery had been attempted the Native Americans would have won the battle. In 1492 Columbus did suggest in his diary that the naives he found in the Bahamas would make good slaves and the Spanish missions did treat the Native Americans in the Western areas poorly and killing them, but the slave trade of African American people began because the labor was needed and Indentured servants didn't work out.


Why did colonies replace servant with African slaves?

Colonies replaced servants with African slaves because slaves were seen as a more cost-effective labor force due to their lifelong servitude and the ability to exploit them for agricultural work. Additionally, African slaves were readily available due to the transatlantic slave trade, making them a convenient source of labor for European colonies in the Americas.


In latin America during the early period of spanish colonial the deaths of large numbers of the native people led to?

The deaths of large numbers of native peoples in Latin America during the early Spanish colonial period led to the implementation of the encomienda system, which granted conquistadors control over indigenous labor. This exploitation and devastation of indigenous populations also prompted discussions about the morality and ethics of the colonizers' actions. Additionally, it resulted in the introduction of African slave labor to replace the diminishing indigenous population.
