That's why Native Americans are often refereed to as Indians, because that is what Christopher Columbus thought. He believed he was in India not America.
Because he was apart of spain and so spain knew that india had really good spices and stuff that they can trade so they sent Christopher not knowing that there was another country and then he landed in cuba always thinking he found india
