B. Maroon settlements in the territory claimed as ancestral by the Kaliña and Lokono peoples 40. When presenting its final written arguments, the State advised the Court that Maroon communities also inhabited the territory claimed by the Kaliña and Lokono peoples in this case.50 Thus, during the on-site procedure the Court verified that, in different areas, the territory claimed by the Kaliña and Lokono peoples adjoins settlements of the N’djuka Maroon tribe.51 In this regard, in the case of the Moiwana Community v. Suriname, the Court observed that the traditional lands of the N’djuka Maroons are located alongside the Tapanahoni and the Cottica Rivers.52 41. In this regard, the State indicated during the on-site procedure and in its corresponding written observations that, in the area claimed by the Kaliña and Lokono peoples, there were Maroons living in the following settlements: 1) Albina; 2) Papatam; 3) Mankele Kampu; 4) Maria Kondre; 5) Eduard Kondre; 6) Bamboesie; 7) Onikai Kondre; 8) Manja Bong; 9) Kronto Kondre; 10) Boni Kondre or Baa Joebe kampoe; 11) Moengo Tapu; 12) Adjuma Kondre; 13) Nengre Kriki; 14) Bilo Kondre; 15) Akoloikondre; 16) Baajoebkampu; 17) Solegakampu, and 18) Brunswijkkampu. It also asserted that more Maroon settlements existed within the territory claimed, but they could not be indicated because the map provided by the representatives during the public hearing was imprecise. 42. In this regard, in their written observations on the on-site procedure, the representatives affirmed that the land to the south of Anjoemara Creek and to the north of Aloemada Creek53 did not form part of the claim in this case. In this regard, the representatives provided a list of the relevant settlements that were within the limits indicated and that, consequently, were not part of the territory over which the Kaliña and Lokono peoples allege their right to ancestral property; namely: 1) Albina; 2) Papatam; 3) Mankilikampoe; 4) Mariakondre; 5) Eduardkondre; 6) Akoloikondre; 7) Bamboesi and 8) Koni. The representatives also indicated that the Maroon settlements of 9) Mongo Tapu and 10) Adjoemakondre are near the Lokono community of Alfonsdorp; however, those settlements were located outside the indigenous ancestral territory claimed.54 43. In addition, the representatives clarified the situation of several Maroon families who live in the territories of the Lokono community of Alfonsdorp; of a Maroon settlement called 11) Bilokondre, which is between the communities of Marijkedorp (Wan Shi Sha) and Pierrekondre, and of the Maroon settlements of 12) Krontokondre, 13) Soke, 14) Pakirakondre and 15) Mopikondre located in the Kaliña community of Bigiston. 50 According to the information provided by the State in its final written arguments, approximately 13,103 Maroons reside in Marowijne District (merits file, folio 582). 51 Cf. Statements made on August 17, 2015, during the on-site procedure, by M. Misindjan, President of the Land Rights Commission and the State agent in this case; by T. Sondrejoe, Marowijne District Commissioner, and by Fergus MacKay, representative of the alleged victims (merits file, folio 973). 52 Cf. Case of the Moiwana Community, supra, para. 86.4. 53 The Anjoemara Creek marks the boundary between the community of Marijkedorp (Wan Shi Sha) and Albina. The Aloemada Creek also marks the boundary with the Kaliña community of Bigiston. Cf. Brief of the representatives of September 8, 2015, para. 19 (merits file, folio 953). 54 In addition, the representatives indicated that the houses built in Alfonsdorp for the survivors of the Moiwana massacre were inhabited sporadically, without specifying by whom, and that the N'djuka Maroon village of Moiwana was outside the land claimed by the Kaliña and Lokono peoples. Cf. Brief of the representatives of September 8, 2015, paras. 14, 15 and 19 (merits file, folios 951 to 954). 16
