description To unearth the spatiality of indigenous women from written and visual narratives of mapping processes is one of the greatest challenges to be faced by the history of Latin American critical cartography. Despite advances in research on indigenous history in relation to the proactive role of women in colonial society, on crucial topics such as territoriality, an aesthetic of absence, neglect and disappearance is still accentuated. Through written documents, a map and ethnographic data from Jê peoples, this article shows that indigenous female subjectivity was achieved in a mapping expedition to the interior of southern Brazil that took place between the years 1768-1773 and in a cartographic image.
