We obtain the trace map images of the values of certain harmonic volumes for some cyclic quotients of [Formula: see text]th Fermat curves. These provide the algorithm showing that the algebraic cycles, called [Formula: see text]th Ceresa cycles, are not algebraically equivalent to zero in their Jacobian varieties. We apply the method to curves for prime [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] modulo [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text].
