Waorani: Mapping Ancestral Lands In the face of mounting threats to their lands and livelihoods, Waorani communities have begun creating territorial maps of their forests that document the historic and actual uses of their territory, demonstrating that their homelands are not up for grabs. Whereas the maps of oil companies show petrol deposits and major rivers, the maps that the Waorani peoples are creating identify historic battle sites, ancient cave-carvings, jaguar trails, medicinal plants, animal reproductive zones, important fishing holes, creek-crossings, sacred waterfalls Explore the map
Secoya: Recovering Ancestral Territory Since the 1941 war between Ecuador and Peru, the Secoya Nation has been separated by political borders and displaced from their ancestral homelands. Now they are working to reclaim their ancestral land and reunite with their families. Here is an interactive georeferenced map of Lagarto Cocha which visually displays Secoya ancestral settlements, ceremonial centers, mythological sites, ancient travel routes, and traditional forest uses.
