The first Europeans to encounter Native Americans were likely Norse explorers, such as Leif Erikson, around the year 1000 AD, who reached parts of North America, specifically present-day Newfoundland, Canada. However, the more widely recognized arrival was that of Christopher Columbus in 1492, who landed in the Caribbean and subsequently initiated widespread contact between Europeans and Native American populations. This led to significant cultural exchanges, conflicts, and changes in both societies.
