By employing communicative artifacts created by the indigenous organizations of Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (Colombia) to relate to the national society and express the own way of thought, this presentation aims to shed light on the indigenous efforts to ensure that self-determined forms of territorial mapping, particularly in the context of larger state territorial zoning plans aimed at facilitating state and private firms access to ex- isting natural resources in their ancestral territory. In this context, the indigenous critical positioning vis-à-vis state schemes point to the need for the protection of the integrality of territory, in this manner suggesting other forms of comprehending the theory and the praxis of human rights.
