The first African people in America arrived to the archipelagos and islands of the Caribbean. The first black Spanish navigator in America was Pedro Alonso Nino, he was a pilot in one of Christopher Columbus ships. At the beginning of the 16th Century more people of African heritage started arriving and settling in America, some of them as free men, but many others as workers, servants and even slaves.
