“…The theory that has been agreed so far is that the path of human migration in the Maluku Archipelago is divided into two directions: from Mangoli Island towards the North to the Northern and Eastward to the Southern part of the Maluku Archipelago. The archaeological record shows that the artifactual data found at the Gola Cave Site, Halmahera, North Maluku Islands is around 30,000 years old, or the same age as the artifactual data found at the Liang Lembudu and Nabulei Lisa sites in the Aru Islands (Mansyur, 2007; O'Connor, Veth, 2005;Veth et al, 2005). This fact is one of the primary supports for the theory of two human migration routes in the Indonesian Archipelago, the North and South routes.…”

“…From the time of European contact, and likely well before, Ujir, together with the neighbouring island of Wasir, and the nearby settlements of Wokam and Dobo, have formed an area of interface between Aru and global trade, colonialism, and later the modern state of Indonesia. This makes Ujir a particularly intriguing community for those studying boundaries, trade, and cultural interaction, and the earliest archaeological surveys of the site, undertaken as part of an Indonesian and international collaboration at the end of the twentieth century, confirmed this value from a material culture perspective as well (Veth et al 2000(Veth et al , 2005.…”

“…Looking at the historic sources for the area east of Maluku it is clear that similar defensive settlements were built as far east as Papua. Merton (1910) reported that fortifications at Ujir in the Aru Islands were already abandoned when he visited the islands in 1908 (Schapper this volume; Veth et al 2005).…”
