The Indigenous population of the Americas in 1492 was not necessarily at a high point and may actually have already been in decline in some areas. Indigenous populations in most areas of the Americas reached a low point by the early 20th century.<ref>Thornton, pp. xvii, 36.</ref>
 
Using an estimate of approximately 37&nbsp;million people in Mexico, Central and South America in 1492 (including 6&nbsp;million in the [[Aztec Empire]], 5–10&nbsp;million in the Mayan States, 11 million in what is now Brazil, and 12&nbsp;million in the [[Inca Empire]]), the lowest estimates give a deathpopulation tolldecrease from all causes of 80% by the end of the 17th century (nine million people in 1650).<ref name="Histoire">"La catastrophe démographique" (The Demographic Catastrophe"), ''[[L'Histoire]]'' n°322, July–August 2007, p.&nbsp;17.</ref> Latin America would match its 15th-century population early in the 19th century; it numbered 17&nbsp;million in 1800, 30&nbsp;million in 1850, 61&nbsp;million in 1900, 105&nbsp;million in 1930, 218&nbsp;million in 1960, 361&nbsp;million in 1980, and 563&nbsp;million in 2005.<ref name=Histoire/> In the last three decades of the 16th century, the population of present-day Mexico dropped to about one&nbsp;million people.<ref name=Histoire/> The [[Maya peoples|Maya]] population is today estimated at six million, which is about the same as at the end of the 15th century, according to some estimates.<ref name=Histoire/> In what is now Brazil, the Indigenous population declined from a pre-Columbian high of an estimated four million to some 300,000.

While epidemic disease was a leading factor of the population decline of the American Indigenous peoples after 1492, there were other contributing factors, all of them related to European contact and colonization. One of these factors was warfare. According to demographer Russell Thornton, although many people died in wars over the centuries, and war sometimes contributed to the near extinction of certain tribes, warfare and death by other violent means was a comparatively minor cause of overall native population decline.<ref>War not a major cause : Thornton, pp. 47–49.</ref>
 
From the U.S. Bureau of the Census in 1894, wars between the government and the Indigenous peoples ranged over 40 in number over the previous 100 years. These wars cost the lives of approximately 19,000 white people, and the lives of about 30,000 Indians, including men, women, and children. They safely estimated that the amountnumber of Native people who were killed or wounded was actually around fifty percent more than what was recorded.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Bureau of Indian Affairs {{!}} USAGov |url=https://www.usa.gov/federal-agencies/bureau-of-indian-affairs |access-date=2021-12-09 |website=www.usa.gov |language=en}}</ref>
 
There is some disagreement among scholars about how widespread warfare was in pre-Columbian America,<ref>{{cite book |author=W. D. Rubinstein |title=Genocide: A History |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nMMAk4VwLLwC&pg=PA12 |year=2004 |publisher=Pearson Education |isbn=978-0-582-50601-5 |page=12}}</ref> but there is general agreement that war became deadlier after the arrival of the Europeans and their firearms.{{Citation needed|reason=Actually the scholarly consensus is that Amerindian warfare and violence was highly evolved prior to the arrival of Europeans. See War Before Civilization by Keeley. As well as North American Indigenous Warfare and Ritual Violence. Chacon Edit.|date=October 2019}} The South or Central American infrastructure allowed for thousands of European [[conquistador]]s and tens of thousands of their [[Indian auxiliaries]] to attack the dominant Indigenous civilization. Empires such as the [[Inca]]s depended on a highly centralized administration for the distribution of resources. Disruption caused by the war and the colonization hampered the traditional economy, and possibly led to shortages of food and materials.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.worldhistory.org/Inca_Government/ |title=Inca Government |last=Cartwright |first=Mark |date=Oct 2015 |website=[[World History Encyclopedia]] |publisher=Knights of Vatican |access-date=19 July 2017 |quote=Eventually 40,000 Incas would govern some 10 million subjects speaking over 30 different languages. Consequently, the centralised Inca government, employing a vast network of administrators, governed over a patchwork empire which, in practice, touched local populations to varying degrees.}}</ref> Across the western hemisphere, war with various Native American civilizations constituted alliances based out of both necessity or economic prosperity and, resulted in mass-scale intertribal warfare.<ref>{{cite book |author=W.
