It’s widely believed that before colonization, Abya Yala was a vast wilderness, a terra nullius. The pre-colonial cities and villages of these lands suffer from historical erasure because to recognize their importance would challenge that narrative. There are many today who live atop Indigenous homes yet know nothing of pre-colonial history. So our humble request is this – Learn the true history of the land and its Indigenous peoples.
I’m a book editor and would love to discuss creating a print book of the Indigenous maps of the land we currently call North America.
Who would be the right person to contact?
