<span>Gold, silver, and sugar are among the many reasons why the Spaniards enslaved Native Americans and Africans. Spaniards used these people not only to be as miners but also as craftsmen, herders, and domestic laborers. These people were forced to work for many hours but were only paid depending on the amount of gold and silver they mined. In some cases, particularly in Peru, Africans were not used to the high altitude and the cost for clothing and feeding was high. As a measure for this the Spaniards used the Native Americans to mine for them at low temperatures and higher grounds while the Africans were in Mexico panning for gold. </span>

Alja [10]
<span>He definitely wasn't a failure: he captained what became arguably the most famous voyage in the history of seafaring. True, he wasn't the first European to visit America (the Vikings were), but his journey opened up the East and the West and ushered in the modern era. That isn't something a failure could do. But he certainly wasn't a hero, either. He was a ruthless and cruel man who inflicted unspeakable tortures upon innocent natives after he arrived in America. He was neither a failure, nor a hero. He was a very succesful man who was also a horrible person.</span>

Why would a researcher use a secondary source instead of a primary source when analyzing a historical event
OLga [1]
Primary source is the firsthand experience and evidence of an event, where the any given information first appeared (initial report). The secondary source uses the first source in order to give its information (for example: document that analyzes primary source documents).
When analyzing historical event a researcher use a secondary source instead of a primary source because he uses the primary source as the imput information (facts, events, dates, names) in order to analyze them, connect them and explain them in his work.
