I believe you're referring to gunpowder. Gun powder was originally created for Chinese fireworks, the Europeans turned it into a deadly weapon. Guns and Canons devastated the Native American tribes because of 1) the belief in one-on-one combat that many of the natives still believed in and 2) the primitive weaponry of the natives. Of course, there were other factors such as disease that helped the conquistadors in their conquests.
