Amerindians

In this study, I shall follow the protagonists on their journey from innocent people to people filled with hatred. I shall be primarily concerned with the responses, challenges, opportunities and attitudes of the Amerindians, putting special notice on how they were annihilated by the Spanish. The sources we will use we be short accounts by Bartolome de Las Casas and Bartolome Arazans de Orsua. The Amerindians were burned alive, hung, raped and eaten by dogs. …

…as theft or any style of coveting. (Las Casas 89-92, 49-51. Latin American Conflict and Creation, Burns Published by Prentice Hall pages 13-15.) Due to all the years of torture, overwork, disease and malnutrition we have very little remains of the Amerindians. Their buildings, arts, cities, and history have all been destroyed. Bartolome de Las Casas and Bartolome Arazans de Orsua have allowed us to have better knowledge of the Amerindians and the New World.
