Platform mounds were constructed frequently during the Woodland and Mississippian periods.

Pambere ŵanthu ŵa ku Europe ŵandambe kukhala ku North America, ŵanthu ŵa ku Arkansas ŵakakhalanga mu charu ichi vyaka vinandi. Ŵanthu ŵa mtundu wa Caddo, Osage, na Quapaw ŵakakumana na ŵanthu ŵa ku Europe awo ŵakamba kupenja malo. Munthu wakwamba kufika ku Europe wakaŵa Hernando de Soto wa ku Spain mu 1541, ndipo wakambuka Mlonga wa Mississippi na kwambuka Arkansas na mapiri gha Ozark. Wakati wasanga kuti palije cinthu cilicose cakuzirwa ndipo wakakumana na ŵanthu ŵa ku malo agha, iyo na ŵanalume ŵake ŵakawelera ku Mlonga wa Mississippi uko De Soto wakalwara. Apo wakaŵa pafupi kufwa, wakalangura ŵanalume ŵake kuti ŵakome ŵanalume wose ŵa mu muzi wapafupi wa Anilco, awo wakawopanga kuti ŵakakolerananga na gulu linyake lankhongono ku Quigualtam. Ŵanalume ŵake ŵakapulikira ndipo ŵakakoma ŵanalume pera yayi, kweni ŵakakomaso ŵanakazi na ŵana wuwo. Wakafwira pafupi na McArthur, Arkansas, mu Meyi 1542. Thupi lake likathika na mchenga ndipo ŵanthu ŵake ŵakamuŵika mu dindi la maji mu Mlonga wa Mississippi. De Soto wakayezga kupusika ŵanthu ŵa ku malo agha kuti ŵaghanaghanenge kuti iyo ni ciuta wambura kufwa, zuŵa la dazi, mwakuti ŵaleke kutimbanizgika na Ŵamwenye ŵa ku America awo ŵakakwiya na ŵasilikari ŵake awo pa nyengo iyi ŵakaŵa kuti ŵamba kufota. Kuti ŵalutilire kucita cinthu ici, ŵanalume ŵake ŵakaphalira ŵanthu ŵa mu cigaŵa ici kuti De Soto wakwera kucanya. Wati wafwa, wakalemba mu chikalata chake kuti "ŵapika ŵanayi ŵa ku India, mahachi ghatatu, na nkhumba 700" ŵaguliskike. Ŵanalume aŵa ŵakamba kukoma nkhumba, ndipo pamasinda, ŵakayezga kuwelera ku Mexico. Ŵakafika ku Texas pambere ŵandafike mu cigaŵa ico kukaŵa kwakomira comene kuti munthu wangalimamo tirigu, ndipo ŵanthu ŵakaŵanga ŵacoko comene mwakuti ŵakatondekanga kusanga cakurya mwa kwiba ŵanthu ŵa mu cigaŵa ici. Ŵakawelera ku Arkansas mwaluŵiro. Ŵakati ŵapanga maboti ghacoko waka, ŵakakhilira ku Mississippi ndipo pamasinda ŵakaluta ku Mexico.

Mu 1673, ŵanthu ŵa ku France, Jacques Marquette na Louis Jolliet, ŵakaluta ku malo agha, ndipo mu 1681, ŵanthu ŵa ku France, Robert La Salle na Henri de Tonti, nawo ŵakaluta ku malo agha. Mu 1686, Tonti wakambiska malo ghakucemeka Arkansas Post mu muzi wa Quapaw, ndipo uwu ukaŵa msumba wakwamba wa ŵanthu ŵa ku Europe kukhala mu chigaŵa ichi. Ŵanthu ŵa ku Spain panji ŵa ku France ndiwo ŵakamba kupenja malo agha, ndipo ŵakacipa zina ili. Zina ili likwenera kuti likafuma ku zina la fuko la Quapaw, ilo likakhalanga musi mwa mlonga. Zina lakuti Arkansas likuzunulika na kulembeka mu nthowa zakupambanapambana. Chigaŵa ichi chikapangika kuŵa chigaŵa cha Arkansaw pa Julayi 4, 1819, ndipo pa Juni 15, 1836, chikapangika kuŵa chigaŵa cha Arkansas. Zina ili kale likaŵa /ˈɑːrkənsɔː/, /ɑːrˈkænzəs/, na ghanyake ghanandi. Ŵanthu ŵa ku Arkansas ŵakujichema kuti "Arkansans" panji "Arkansawyers". Mu 1881, Nyumba ya Malamulo ya ku Arkansas yikapeleka dango la Arkansas Code 1-4-105 (lemba lakuzomerezgeka):

Pakuti pali kukhuŵara pa umo zina la boma lithu likuyowoyekera, ntchakukhumbikwa kumanya umo zina ili likuyowoyekera nadi para tikuyowoya na ŵalara ŵa boma.

Ndipo nkhani iyi yasanda makora comene na wupu wa State Historical Society na wa Eclectic Society of Little Rock, ndipo wose ŵakukolerana kuti zina ili likwenera kuzunulika makora.

Ntheura nyumba zose ziŵiri za wupu wa malango zikwenera kusankhirathu kuti zina la boma ili, ilo likuyowoyeka na ŵanthu ŵa ku France, ndilo likazunulikanga makora na ŵanthu ŵa ku India, ndipo likalembeka mu mazgu gha Chifurenchi agho ghakwimira lizgu ili. Lizgu ili likwenera kuzunulika mu vilembo vitatu, ndipo paumaliro wa vilembo ivi, "s" waleke kuzunulika, ndipo pa vilembo vyose viŵiri, "a" waleke kuzunulika, ndipo pa vilembo vyose viŵiri, "a" waleke kuzunulika, ndipo pa vilembo vyose viŵiri, "a" waleke kuzunulika. Kuyowoya mazgu mwakudumura pa lizgu laciŵiri na lizgu la "a" mu "man" na lizgu laumaliro la "s" ni cinthu ciphya ico tikwenera kucikanizga.

Ŵanthu ŵa ku chigaŵa cha Kansas kanandi ŵakuzunura mlonga wa Arkansas kuti /ɑːrˈkænzəs ˈrɪvər/, mu nthowa yakuyana waka na umo zina la chigaŵa chawo likuyowoyekera.

Ŵanthu awo ŵakambanga kukhalamo, nga ni awo ŵakagwiranga nchito ya kupenja vikumba, ŵakasamira ku Arkansas mu vyaka vya m'ma 1700. Ŵanthu aŵa ŵakagwiliskiranga nchito ofesi ya Arkansas Post nga ni malo ghakusungiramo katundu. Mu nyengo ya Ŵakoloni, caru ca Arkansas cikaŵa mu mawoko gha France na Spain pamasinda pa Nkhondo ya Vyaka 7, nangauli pakaŵavya uyo wakakhumbanga kuti malo agha ghaŵe gha Ŵakoloni. Mu Epulero 1783, ku Arkansas kukacitika nkhondo yimoza pera mu Nkhondo ya Kujiyimira ku America, apo ŵasilikari ŵa boma la Britain, Captain James Colbert na ŵasilikari ŵa mtundu wa Choctaw na Chickasaw, ŵakazingilizga malo agha kwa kanyengo.

Ŵakati ŵagura malo agha, vinthu vikamba kusintha pakati pa ŵanthu ŵa ku America na ŵa ku Arkansas. Ŵakapangana kuti ŵazga ŵaŵepo mu chigaŵa ichi, ndipo pa Julayi 4, 1819 ŵakaŵika boma la Arkansas. Mu Arkansas, ŵanthu ŵakakana kuti ŵazga ŵaŵe ŵazga, ndipo mulara wa nyumba ya malango, Henry Clay, wakazomerezga kuti ŵazga ŵaŵe ŵazga.

Mu Arkansas, nkhani ya wuzga yikaŵa yakusuzga chomene, ndipo yikaŵa yakusuzga kwa vyaka vinandi. Awo ŵakagwiranga nchito ya kulima vipasi ku Arkansas ŵakakhozgeranga comene wuzga, cifukwa ŵakawonanga kuti nchito ya muzga ndiyo yikaŵa yiwemi panji "yekha" yakovwira pa mulimo wa kuvuna. "Chipiri" cha kumpoto chakumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Arkansas chikaŵavya vyakurya vyakupambanapambana, ndipo ŵanthu ŵakagwiranga waka ntchito zaulimi.

Apo ŵanthu ŵa ku Europe ŵakamba kukhala mu vigaŵa vyose vya East Coast na Midwest, mu ma 1830, boma la United States likamba kufumiska mafuko ghanandi gha ku America na kughatolera ku Arkansas na Indian Territory kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Mlonga wa Mississippi.

Ŵakaŵafumiskaso mu 1833 apo ŵakaŵachimbizganga mu chigaŵa icho chikaŵa pasi pa Ŵachiindiya. Mu 1821, msumba ukuru ukasamuka ku Arkansas Post na kuluta ku Little Rock.

Pa zuŵa lakwamba la nkhondo ya cikaya ya ku America mu 1860, ŵazga ŵa ku America awo ŵakaŵa ŵa ku Africa ŵakaŵa 111,115, ndipo ŵakaŵa pafupifupi 25 peresenti ya ŵanthu wose ŵa mu boma ili. Nkhondo yikati yamara, ŵanthu ŵakamba kulimbikira chomene kulima thonje, ndipo ivi vikapangiska kuti boma na chigaŵa ichi vileke kuŵa pa mtende na charu vyaka vinandi. Usambazi uwo ŵanthu ŵa ku Arkansas ŵakasanganga ukacitiska kuti paŵe kugaŵikana pa ndyali pakati pa Northwest na Southeast.

Ŵandyali ŵanandi ŵakasankhika kufuma mu gulu la Family, ilo likaŵa gulu lakuvikilira wanangwa wa ŵanthu ŵa ku South ku Arkansas pambere nkhondo yindambe. Ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakakhumbanga kuti nkhondo yileke kucitika. Apo vyaru vya ku Gulf vikafumako ku United States mu 1861, ŵimiliri ŵa ungano uwo ukacitikira ku Arkansas ŵakadumbiskana usange Arkansas nayo yikwenera kufumako ku United States. Ŵasilikari ŵa boma la Arkansas ŵakafumapo yayi mu boma ili m'paka apo Abraham Lincoln wakapempha kuti ŵatumizge ŵasilikari ku Fort Sumter kuti ŵakakome ŵanthu awo ŵakagalukira boma.

Ŵacina ŵanandi ŵakamba kucita malonda mu matawuni ghacoko, mwakuti ŵana ŵawo ŵakasambira ku koleji.

Kuzengeka kwa njanji kukawovwira kuti ŵalimi ŵanandi ŵafike pa msika. Vinthu vikasintha mu vigaŵa vinyake vya boma ili, nga ni Ozarks, uko ŵanthu ŵanyake ŵakamba kukhala mu malo ghakupumulirako. Mwaciyelezgero, mu vilimika vicoko waka kuumaliro wa vilimika vya m'ma 1800, msumba wa Eureka Springs, ku Carroll County, ukaŵa na ŵanthu 10,000.
