Question

I heared that 6 millions of them have been killed during the fight is it true?

Answer 1

No American Indians are not myth. They are of the human species just like you. They are not extinct.

This is what the Smithsonian Institue says:
The American Indians are physically Mongoloids and thus must have originated in eastern Asia. The differences in appearance of the various New World tribes in recent times are due to (1) the initial variability of their Asian ancestors; (2) adaptations over several millennia to varied New World environments; and (3) different degrees of mixing in post-Columbian times with people of European, African, and Asian origins. Differences from their relatives in northeastern Asia are also due to changes in the latter populations after the separation.

Bering Strait, where the Eastern and Western Hemispheres face one another across a narrow strip of water, is the most likely place for migrating groups to have crossed into the New World. There is not sufficient evidence for immigration via other routes before the Norse arrivals in Greenland and Newfoundland about A.D. 1,000, and if indeed any other early voyages occurred, they were insignificant for the origins and composition of New World populations.

Just when the Paleo-Indians--the first inhabitants of the Americas--entered the Americas is still under investigation. The prevailing theory calls for bands of interior hunters passing over the Bering Land Bridge, when sea levels were as much as 300 feet below at the end of the last Ice Age, and preceding through an "ice-free corridor" between the Laurentide and Cordilleran ice sheets to reach unglaciated lands to the south. Another theory calls for a coastal movement along the southern edge of the Land Bridge by early sea-adapted peoples. Certainly Paleo-Indians were well established south of the ice sheet by 12,000 years ago. Yet those probably were not the first arrivals. Sites and artifacts claimed to be older than this are gaining acceptance, but anything dated older than about 14,000 years ago, the date when rising sea levels submerged with Bering Land Bridge, separating Asia from the Americas, is still regarded with skepticism. However, some scholars do feel that humans were in North America at least by 20,000-25,000 years ago.

At no time, however, was the peopling of the New World a mass movement of people. More likely it was a trickle of small groups or bands entering from Asia over thousands of years. Among the last to arrive were the ancestors of the Eskimos who, settling along the Arctic coasts, effectively ended the migrations.

Answer 2

Oh good God, please say that you are not American.
The native Americans (don't call them red Indians; that's a racial slur, even though some baseball teams carry the name) were the first inhabitants of North and South America. Christopher Columbus, upon first arriving in America, thought he had landed in India and therefore named the peoples he found "Indians". Then he slaughtered the men and raped the women. However, many of the native Americans were brilliant military strategists, and their populations were most effected not because of lack of military power, but because of illnesses brought by white settlers. American history is blackened by atrocities our founding fathers committed against the native peoples for hundreds of years. There are still native Americans alive today; many Americans have native American heritage, and there are places in the US, mostly on "reservations" located in the west, where the languages and cultures of many native American tribes still thrive.

Indian americans(red indians),r the real owners and inhabitors of america,they lived their for thousands of years,but when the nic angelic ppl who calls themselvs americans now,came to the american continent,they killed the indiansand took their land,they had great massacres for indians,(what nic ppl)
