Answer:

the literal definition is, and i quote:
originating or occurring naturally in a particular place; native.

"coriander is indigenous to southern Europe"
or:
(of people) inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times or from before the arrival of colonists.

"she wants the territorial government to speak with Indigenous people before implementing a program"
You don't need to explain it. It's fine as it is.
