Native Americans treated de Soto's expedition differently from Columbus' because by the time de Soto arrived, indigenous populations had experienced previous encounters with Europeans like Columbus and thus were more wary and resistant. Additionally, de Soto's expedition was more aggressive, seeking gold and resources through force, resulting in increased hostility from Native Americans.
