As columbus encounters the landand and the arawak people, what characteristics does he notice about them? What do his comments suggest about his goals

Respuesta :

Answer:

naive and selfless.

Explanation:

When Christopher Columbus first set his foot in the Americas, he reported that the people, Arawaks, were too naive and selfless.

He remarked that the Arawaks were not hostile to foreigners. Instead he said that they were too open to give and share whatever they possessed.

Columbus' comments about the characteristics of the Arawak people suggest his ulterior motive of taking the natives as slaves and draining their wealth especially gold from their land.

He also concluded this report in order to gain more support and funds from the royal majesty in Spain.
