This paper highlights the relevance of analyzing entangled territorialities and Indigenous use of maps in order to better understand what Lévy describes in terms of “spatial capital”—the socio‐economic dynamics and power relationships maintained and negotiated between the stakeholders interacting within the Indigenous forestland. More specifically, it discusses the entanglement dynamics of land tenures coexisting today within Nitaskinan, the ancestral territory claimed by the Atikamekw Nehirowisiwok. Within Nitaskinan, members of the First Nation negotiate the continuity of their practices, occupation, and use of ancestral hunting territories with state institutions, logging companies, and non‐Indigenous members of civil society who have interests in the land resources. All these stakeholders implement different territorial regimes that interact and sometimes conflict. Based on concrete ethnographic examples, the analysis presented here focuses on the compromises, frictions, resistance, and creativity that are part of territorial coexistence between Indigenous and non Indigenous people. Cet article souligne la pertinence d'analyser les territorialités enchevêtrées et l'utilisation des cartes par les revendiqué par les Atikamekw Nehirowisiwok. Au sein de Nitaskinan, les membres de la Première nation négocient la continuité de leurs pratiques, occupations et utilisation des territoires de chasse ancestraux avec les institutions de l'État, les sociétés forestières et les membres non autochtones de la société civile, acteurs qui ont tous des intérêts dans l'utilisation des ressources naturelles. Ces acteurs mettent en œuvre différents régimes territoriaux qui interagissent et parfois s'opposent. Basée sur des exemples ethnographiques concrets, l'analyse présentée ici se concentre sur les compromis, les frictions, les résistances et la créativité qui font partie de la coexistence territoriale entre les peuples autochtones et non autochtones.
