The population of native Latin Americans decreased during the age of exploration and with colonization because of the diseases that conquistadors and colonizers brought that Latin Americans did not have any previous exposure to (no immunity so died from the diseases). The colonizors had used native populations for labor so when they died, they needed a new form of labor. They brought Africans to latin america and enslaved them for their labor. This bringing of slaves over created the transatlantic slave trade (depicted in the pictures, transatlantic bc they were shipping over the atlantic ocean) and also created the diaspora of african culture and religions to latin america (this is found most in the carribean).
