Native-Land.ca is a resource to help people around the world learn more about their local history. It's designed to help you see what indigenous territories and languages might have and still do exist in the world, including where you live. Treaties are also mapped. This is an ongoing project and more territories are added regularly.
You are missing the HOPI tribe
The trib is mad
Time to Act
Knowledge requires action. Is it right that so many universities in the US know that they are sitting on indigenous lands that were stolen, yet these institutions do nothing but offer a paltry acknowledgment… lip service! What good does that do for the indigenous peoples who were robbed, exploited and forced from their lands. GIVE IT BACK! What good could be done if Yale gave their campus property back to the Native American Quinnipiac tribe that once flourished on that land? Yale has a $40B+ endowment. They have the ability to do what is right by giving the land back to the indigenous people it was stolen from and relocate. Or Yale can buy the land from the Quinnipiac indigenous people at current market value. This is one example of thousands in the US… hypocrisy! All those who are for making things right should demand that these universities give the land back to the rightful owners or pay these exploited indigenous people current market value for the property. Acknowledgment does nothing but pour salt on multigenerational wounds. Atonement by these ultra-wealthy institutions is the only action that can begin to heal the wounds. Berkeley, Harvard, Princeton, Reed, USC, etc, etc… are each built on stolen lands. These are hypocritical institutions that love to give lip service, but NOTHING more. Let’s confront their hypocrisy and make them choose to do what is within their ability to right the wrongs of the past.
Wonderful!
The resources are great and present info as clearly as can be expected, given shifting boundaries across time and imprecision of some historical data. I’m so grateful that you added the ability to mark your current location! I understand why modern cities, borders, and roads aren’t on the map, but it can be challenging to find where you are, especially in some of the less-distinct stretches in the middle of the continent; having the geolocation option is extremely helpful.
Wonderful — looking forward to improvements
The resources are great and very helpful. One simple improvement that would massively increase the usability of this app is if it marked your current location.

5 Stars
Wonderful informative app, everyone should use !!
Much improved.
I re-downloaded at the developers request after the most recent update and they have fixed all the issues from the previous version. It’s a really informative app and easy to use.
Crash in latest update, but FANTASTIC app
On my iPhone XR running ios 15.01, clicking any of the options under the resources tab crashes the app. This app is fantastic though, and is full of vital information.
