Fundamentally, the maps aim to visualize the complexity and diversity of Indigenous peoples, nations, and cultures across the Americas, Australia, and increasingly the world, so that Non-Indigenous and Indigenous people alike can increase their understanding and knowledge of the breadth and depth of Indigenous history in these places.
