One of Tecumseh’s main goals when leading Native American resistance was to preserve Native American culture and fight further U.S. expansion," since the settlers had been slowly expanding for some time.

Answer: To preserve Native American culture and fight further U.S. expansion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tecumseh (1768-1813) was a Shawnee political representative and war leader whose main goal was to resist the American invasion and preserve Native American culture. He led the establishment of the Prophetstown settlement (1808). After the town was devastated in the Battle of Tippecanoe, Tecumseh confronted pro-British troops in the War of 1812, and eventually died during the Battle of the Thames.
