Book excerpt: Excerpt from Circular of General Information Regarding Hot Springs National Park Arkansas The hot springs were probably visited in 1541 by De Soto, who died the following spring on the Mississippi, about 100 miles away. According to traditions the healing properties of the springs were known to the Indians long before the advent of the Spaniards. There is a tale that the various tribes battled from time to time for control of the hot waters, in which they believed the Great Spirit to be ever present, but that finally a truce was declared under which their benefits were extended to the sick of all tribes.
