The purpose of community mapping is to record the traditional culture and ecological knowledge of tribes on a geographical base. The final product of community mapping can be used as evidence when negotiating with the government. Therefore, drawing the map implies the power to claim sovereignty. However, some map drawers might abuse this power and twist the result for their own interests.This article shows the case study result of Skadang and Xoxos tribes’ traditional territories. After using the public participation geographic information system to draw a map and evaluating the map with place-name analyzing method, I found that a lot of people’s names appear in traditional geographic names. Besides, after documentary analysis, comparative analysis and case study analysis, I discovered that community map reveals not only the tribe’s history but also its contemporary social and cultural environment.
