When Hernando de Soto entered Arkansas in 1541, he and his expedition encountered various Native American tribes, including the Quapaw. The expedition faced challenges such as difficult terrain, harsh weather, and tensions with local tribes. De Soto's group sought resources and gold, but ultimately found little wealth, leading to increased hostility and conflict with indigenous peoples. This marked a significant and tumultuous phase in de Soto's exploration of the southeastern United States.
