Disease that the Spanish brought with them. It is shown in History (Spanish documents) that when they realized the "natives" couldn't handle illnesses that the Spanish were immune too, they purposely traded blankets they new would make the natives ill. Also through rape the Spanish gave the "natives" sexually transmitted disease that killed them by the thousands.
