“…The rock art of the island of Timor (comprising Timor-Leste in the east and Indonesian Timor in the west) has been described and illustrated in several previous publications (Almeida 1967;Galipaud et al 2016;Lape et al 2007;O'Connor 2003;O'Connor & Oliveira 2007;O'Connor et al 2010;. Geometric motifs featuring variations on concentric circles, rayed circles and scrolls are common, as are hand and arm stencils.…”

Painted rock art occurs throughout the islands of the Western Pacific and has previously been argued to have motif and design elements in common, indicating that it was created within the context of a shared symbolic system. Here we report five new painted rock-art sites from Kisar Island in eastern Indonesia and investigate the commonalities between this art and the painted art corpus in Timor-Leste, the independent nation that forms the eastern part of the neighbouring island of Timor. We examine the motifs in the Kisar art and suggest that, rather than being Neolithic in age, some of the figurative motifs more likely have a Metal Age origin, which in this region places them within the last 2500 years.

“…Others have been recorded in the Matgugul Kakun karsts on Buru Island (Ririmasse 2007) and at the Tala River in Seleman Bay on Seram (Oktaviana, Lape et al 2016). Other sites occur on the Kei Islands to the east of Seram (Ballard 1988;Setiawan 1994) and near Kupang in West Timor (O'Connor et al 2015), and in Timor Leste various sites with rock paintings near Tutuala and Baucau (O'Connor 2003), Baguia (O'Connor and Oliveira 2007) and the island of Atauro (Galipaud et al 2016) .…”

The rock paintings of Muna Island first became the subject of research by Indonesia's National Research Centre of Archaeology in Jakarta, Indonesia, almost 40 years ago. Since then, a large assortment of images has been documented, the majority of which are done using brown pigment. The rock art includes figurative motifs such as anthropomorphs, zoomorphs, sun and boat imagery, sometimes in active scenes like hunting and sailing, as well as non-figurative motifs. In 2005, the first observations of negative hand stencils on Muna Island were made at Gua Pominsa by the Makassar Archaeology Office. In 2015, more negative hand stencils were recorded at two further Muna Island sites (Gua Mentanduno and Gua Kabori) by the Directorate of Cultural Property Preservation and Museums, and in 2016 a new site with parietal art (Gua Lakan Taghu) was discovered. Analysis of the Muna Island boat imagery documents the depiction of five propulsion methods, providing an insight into the navigation technology of Muna Island's Austronesian inhabitants. These new developments in rock art research on Muna Island are described here, expanding the catalogue and contributing to a wider understanding of Island Southeast Asian rock art.
