The Europeans brought new diseases that killed off about 70% of them. The remaining amount were enslaved to work in the mines. Although there was a good side. The Columbian exchange was an exchange of biological products between the two. One of the major one was the potato which single handedly saved Europe from starvation. The Europeans gave diseases and the Amerindians gave food.
