Question: What incorrect term for indigenous populations originated with the first explorer to find new land west of Africa, and the continent that holds Majorca?

<P0-S0> Application of the term "Indian" originated with Christopher Columbus, who, in his search for Asia, thought that he had arrived in the East Indies. <P0-S1> The Americas came to be known as the "West Indies", a name still used to refer to the islands of the Caribbean Sea. <P0-S2> This led to the names "Indies" and "Indian", which implied some kind of racial or cultural unity among the aboriginal peoples of the Americas. <P0-S3> This unifying concept, codified in law, religion, and politics, was not originally accepted by indigenous peoples but has been embraced by many over the last two centuries. <P0-S4> [citation needed] Even though the term "Indian" does not include the Aleuts, Inuit, or Yupik peoples, these groups are considered indigenous peoples of the Americas. <SEP> <P1-S0> when the europeans began to explore the islands in the late middle ages, they encountered several indigenous peoples living at a neolithic level of technology. <P1-S1> although the prehistory of the settlement of the canary islands is still unclear, linguistic and genetic analyses seem to indicate that at least some of these inhabitants shared a common origin with the berbers on the nearby north african coast. <P1-S2> the precolonial inhabitants came to be known collectively as the guanches, although "guanches" had been the name for only the indigenous inhabitants of tenerife. <P1-S3> from the 14th century onward, numerous visits were made by sailors from majorca, portugal and genoa. <P1-S4> lancelotto malocello settled on lanzarote in 1312. the majorcans established a mission with a bishop in the islands that lasted from 1350 to 1400. <SEP> <P2-S0> The Majorcan giant dormouse ("Hypnomys morpheus") is an extinct animal from Majorca, Spain in Europe. <P2-S1> It is considered an example of island gigantism. <P2-S2> The closest extant relative is considered to be the genus "Eliomys", which includes the garden dormouse. <P2-S3> It is believed to have been omnivorous, and may have been terrestrial rather than arboreal. <P2-S4> The arrival of humans on the island is believed to have been a major factor in its extinction. <P2-S5> "H. morpheus" was described by the palaeontologist Dorothea Bate in 1919. <P2-S6> A 2011 study estimated its body weight as between 173 and 284 g, with a head and body length of 179 mm and a total body length of 295 mm. <SEP> <P3-S0> bermuda's modern black population contains more than one demographic group. <P3-S1> although the number of residents born in africa is very small, it has tripled between 2000 and 2010 (this group also includes non-blacks). <P3-S2> the majority of blacks in bermuda can be termed "bermudian blacks", whose ancestry dates back centuries between the 17th century and the end of slavery in 1834, bermuda's black population was self-sustaining, with its growth resulting largely from natural expansion. <P3-S3> this contrasts to the enslaved blacks of the plantation colonies, who were subjected to conditions so harsh as to drop their birth rate below the death rate, and slaveholders in the united states and the west indies found it necessary to continue importing more enslaved blacks from africa until the end of slavery (the same had been true for the native americans that the africans had replaced on the new world plantations). <P3-S4> the indigenous populations of many west indian islands, and much of the south-east of what is now the united states that had survived the 16th- and 17th-century epidemics of european-introduced diseases then became the victims of large-scale slave raiding, with much of the region completely depopulated. <P3-S5> when the supply of indigenous slaves ran out, the slaveholders looked to africa). <P3-S6> the ancestry of bermuda's black population is distinguished from that of the british west indian black population in two ways: firstly, the higher degree of european and native american admixture; secondly, the source of the african ancestry. <SEP> <P4-S0> Portugal's neighbouring fellow Iberian rival, Castile, had begun to establish its rule over the Canary Islands, located off the west African coast, in 1402, but then became distracted by internal Iberian politics and the repelling of Islamic invasion attempts and raids through most of the 15th century. <P4-S1> Only late in the century, following the unification of the crowns of Castile and Aragon and the completion of the reconquista, did an emerging modern Spain become fully committed to the search for new trade routes overseas. <P4-S2> The Crown of Aragon had been an important maritime potentate in the Mediterranean, controlling territories in eastern Spain, southwestern France, major islands like Sicily, Malta, and the Kingdom of Naples and Sardinia, with mainland possessions as far as Greece. <P4-S3> In 1492 the joint rulers conquered the Moorish kingdom of Granada, which had been providing Castile with African goods through tribute, and decided to fund Christopher Columbus's expedition in the hope of bypassing Portugal's monopoly on west African sea routes, to reach ``the Indies ''(east and south Asia) by travelling west. <P4-S4> Twice before, in 1485 and 1488, Columbus had presented the project to king John II of Portugal, who rejected it.
