Pre-Columbian population

There were millions of Indians, who had arrived from Asia, living in the Americas when Christopher Columbus arrived in 1492. Columbus' voyage to what Europeans called the "New World" set the stage for the later European colonization of the Americas, with millions of emigrants (willing and unwilling) from the "Old World" eventually resettling in the Americas.
