- Columbus' Report On His First Voyage to King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella (1493)
- Brief Account of the Devastation of the Indies (1542), by Bartolome de las Casas
How does de las Casas' account of the behavior of Spaniards
differ from Columbus's account?
Answer: While Columbus describes a peaceful relationship with the natives, De las Casas describes the violence the natives endure under the Spanish colonization.
Explanation:
De Las Casas describes the abuse against the indigenous people, describing Spaniards as behaving like "ravening wild beasts" while massacring the natives.
On the other hand, Columbus describes the natives as possibly becoming "Christians and inclined to love our King and Queen and Princes and all the people of Spain."
