Which indigenous group in the Caribbean did Columbus think to be energetic, civil and industrious?

Taino Indian.

Explanation:

Taino Indians inhabited in the Caribbeans when Christopher Columbus landed in the New World in 1492. They were the first indigenous people with whom Columbus meet. Their presence was in Hispaniola, Cuba, and Jamaica. Taino people were highly skilled in agriculture, raising crops like corn, beans, yucca, and tobacco. The Taino men worked in fields as well as did fishing and hunting. They hunted snakes, iguanas, and turtles. The voyagers arriving in these islands in 1492 describe the Taino to be gentle. They were hard-working people growing crops and navigating waters in canoes.
