    "American Indian Holocaust" is a term used by American Indian activists to bring attention to the mass destruction of American Indian populations following the European arrival in the Americas, which has hitherto received very limited mention in history, partially because most of the deaths happened before European chroniclers arrived to record them.

    Estimates of the pre-Columbian population vary, from a minimum of 50 million to a maximum of 100 million;[citation needed] 80 to 90% were killed.[citation needed] Although the vast majority of the deaths at that time were caused by factors beyond most human control — e.g., smallpox epidemics — Europeans, especially the Spanish conquistadors, also killed thousands deliberately.

    On November 29, 1864, 700 militia from Colorado and the surrounding territories surrounded a peaceful encampment of so called "Peace Chiefs," predominantly from the Cheyenne and Arapahoe, who had been invited to end the "Indian Wars." Without warning or cause, they opened fire and slaughtered approximately 150 Indians from various "western" tribes. Colonel Chivington and his men cut fetuses out of the women, slaughtered infants by stepping on their heads with their boots, cut the genitals off men and women, and decorated their horses and wagons with scalps, genitalia, and other body parts, before parading through Denver.
