Comment on Ancient Colombians built huge water system without centralized rule, archaeologists say

The pre-Hispanic field systems of La Mojana in the Colombian Caribbean are so vast that they can be seen from a plane at high altitude.
Is “pre-Hispanic” a new replacement for “pre-Columbian”, or is it just used in Colombia to avoid confusion with the country name?
Could have just said Zenú/Sinú.
Pre-hispanic typically means before colonization by Christopher Columbus and his Spaniard ilk.
