The conquistador who reached the Arkansas River was Hernando de Soto. He led an expedition through the southeastern United States in the 1540s, exploring areas that included parts of present-day Arkansas. De Soto's journey marked one of the early European explorations of the region, although he did not establish permanent settlements there. His expedition contributed to the European awareness of the interior of North America.
