Indians = people from India.

The long standing, ignorant United States tradition of referring to indigenous people in the US as "Indians" is shameful, and only happened because Christopher Columbus believed he'd found the West Indies when he landed in the Caribbean almost five hundred years ago.

Hope that helps, let me know if you need clarification or meant something else, etc.

The most widely accepted theory is that indigenous Americans came here by a land or ice bridge across the Baring Strait durring the last ice age. Native Americans are genetically related to Siberian and East Asian inhabitants and no human fossils have been found in the Americas older than 13,000 years.
