Christopher Columbus subjugated the Arawaks through a combination of violence, exploitation, and disease. Upon arrival in the Caribbean in 1492, he and his men enslaved many Arawak people, forcing them to work in gold mines and on plantations. The introduction of European diseases, to which the Arawaks had no immunity, devastated their population. Ultimately, these actions led to the significant decline and displacement of the Arawak people.
