Question

how did columbus hurt his relationship with the indigenous peoples of hispaniola during his first voyage to the americas? he gave them useless glass beads. he forced them to work. he brought several of them back to spain. he drank water from their gourd vessels.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Columbus's action of taking Indigenous people from Hispaniola back to Spain disrupted their lives and communities. This was a violation of their autonomy and a significant negative impact on their relationship with Columbus. Glass beads were seen as valuable by the Indigenous people at first. Forcing to work (more prominent in later interactions not first voyage in a major hurt - initial interactions had some coercion but taking people was a more immediate and severe breach). Drinking water from gourd vessels is a minor thing.

Answer:

C. He brought several of them back to Spain.
