Dr. Rui Maria de Araújo Primeiru-Ministru Repúblika Demokrátika Timór-Leste 3 PREFÁCIO A chegada dos navegadores, comerciantes e evangelizadores portugueses à Ilha de Timor, no século XVI, constitui o inicio do encontro de culturas entre os dois povos, e que conta já com cinco séculos. Nem sempre foi fácil essa convivência e o seu percurso está marcado por inúmeras disputas e violências. Mas o certo é que a própria identidade do povo timorense se forjou no cruzamento das tradições animistas prevalecentes com a religião católica, introduzida pelos portugueses, criando assim, em Timor Oriental, uma especificidade que ajudou a construir a sua identidade própria. Ao assinalar os 500 anos deste encontro, o Governo da República Democrática de Timor-Leste pretende, precisamente, que se atente nesse percurso e nos seus antecedentes, que se estudem e compreendam melhor os seus momentos e que se tirem lições para o futuro. Temos consciência do tipo de relações comerciais estabelecidas com Timor, do mesmo modo que sabemos o valor da resistência do nosso Povo às diferentes ten- tativas de o subjugar e dividir. A História tem de ser entendida também à luz das diferentes épocas e hoje importa acentuar a unidade cultural e política do povo timorense, sem esquecer a sua inserção num mundo global e regional. Saudamos, por isso, estas iniciativas do Arquivo & Museu da Resistência Timorense e da Fundação Mário Soares, que nos trazem um estudo aprofundado sobre a história comum dos nossos dois povos e uma exposição que a permitirá conhecer melhor. Queremos, finalmente, acentuar que as comemorações que se vão realizar em Oe-Cusse Ambeno, onde primeiro desembarcaram os portugueses, assinalam igualmente o 40.º aniversário da Proclamação da Independência do nosso país, adotada em 28 de novembro de 1975, “para salvaguarda dos seus mais legítimos direitos e interesses como Nação Soberana”. Dr. Rui Maria de Araújo Primeiro-Ministro República Democrática de Timor-Leste 4 FOREWORD The arrival of the Portuguese navigators, traders and evangelisers on the Island of Timor in the 16th century started a meeting of cultures between both peoples – a meeting that is already 5 centuries long. This relationship has not always been easy. Indeed, it is fraught with disputes and acts of violence. Still, the truth is that the very identity of the Timorese people was forged in the crossing between the prevailing animistic traditions and the Catholic religion introduced by the Portuguese, thus creating a unique condition in East Timor that helped the people to build their own identity. As we celebrate the 500th anniversary of this meeting, the Government of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste wants precisely to look at that path and its background, so that we may study and understand its moments more effectively and thus learn lessons for the future. We are aware of the type of trade relationships established with Timor, as we are aware of the value of our People’s resistance against the different attempts to subjugate and divide it. History must be understood in the light of the different times, and today we must focus on the cultural and political unity of the Timorese people, without forgetting its insertion in a global and regional world. As such, we praise these initiatives by the Timorese Resistance Archive & Museum and the Mário Soares Foundation, which provide us with a thorough study on the common history of our two peoples and with an exhibition that will allow us to know that history better. Lastly we want to highlight that the celebrations that will be taking place in Oecusse-Ambeno, the site where the Portuguese first set foot on our shores, also mark the 40th anniversary of our country’s Proclamation of Independence, adop- ted on 28 November 1975, “for safeguarding its most legitimate rights and inte- rests as a Sovereign Nation”.

    3 Traditional forms of power tantalizing shreds of evidence It has so far been shown how external forces influenced the course of events on Timor until circa 1640, and how Timor can be situated in a regional and even global context. Before proceeding with an analysis of how Europeans established direct power in the 1640s and 1650s, it will be necessary to take a closer look at the type of society that was found on the island. What were the ‘traditional’ political hierarchies like? How was power executed before the onset of a direct European influence? In spite of all the travel accounts and colonial and mission- ary reports, the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century source material for this region is not rich in ethnographic detail. The aim of the writers was to discuss matters related to the execution of colonial policy and trade, not to provide information about local culture. Occasionally, there are fragments about how the indigenous society functioned, but in order to progress we have to compare these shreds of evidence with later source material. Academically grounded ethnographies only developed in the nineteenth century, but we do possess a certain body of writing from the last 200 years carried out by Western and, later, indigenous observers. Nevertheless, such a comparison must be applied with cau- tion. Society during the last two centuries was not identical to that of the early colonial period, and may have been substantially different in a number of respects. Although Timorese society was low-technology and apparently slow-changing until recently, the changing power rela- tions, the dissemination of firearms, the introduction of new crops, and so on, all had an impact – whether direct or indirect – on the struc- ture of society.

    Lords of the land, lords sea Lords of the land, lords of the sea 1600-1800 and adaptation in early colonial Timor, Conflict Conflict and adaptation in early colonial Timor, 1600-1800 European traders and soldiers established a foothold on Timor in the course of the seventeenth century, motivated by the quest for the commercially vital sandalwood and the intense competition between the Dutch and the Portuguese. Lords of the land, lords of the sea focuses on two centuries of contacts between the indigenous polities on Timor and the early colonials, and covers the period 1600-1800. In contrast with most previous studies, the book treats Timor as a historical region in its own right, using a wide array of Dutch, Portuguese and other original sources, which are compared with the comprehensive corpus of oral tradition recorded on the island. From this rich material, a lively picture emerges of life and death in early Timorese society, the forms of trade, slavery, warfare, alliances, social life. The investigation demonstrates that the European groups, although having a role as ordering political forces, were only part of the political landscape of Timor. They relied on alliances where the distinction between ally and vassal was moot, and led to frequent conflicts and uprisings. During a slow and complicated process, the often turbulent political conditions involving Europeans, Eurasians, and Hans Hägerdal Timorese polities, paved the way for the later division of Timor into two spheres of roughly equal size. Hans Hägerdal (1960) is a Senior Lecturer in History at the Linnaeus University, Sweden. He has written extensively on East and Southeast Asian history.

  • 6 Kupang and the Five Loyal Allies, 1658-1700S |
    6 Kupang and the fi ve loyal allies, 1658-1700s the formation of the five allies The Dutch post in Kupang was typical of the fortified trading offices that dotted the map of maritime Southeast Asia. It was a coastal stronghold situated by a river, which had an inter-dependent relationship with the local inhabitants populating the hinterland. A fortress strong enough to deter local adversaries housed a rudimentary administration staff that attempted to follow the statutes and orders from Batavia as well as it could, considering the limited resources available. The commander, or opperhoofd, headed a council consisting of four trusted Dutchmen, and managed both the administrative and purely commercial affairs. The commercial side of his duties was accentuated by the fact that along with his position as opperhoofd, he was also onderkoopman (under-merchant). The opperhoofden were normally appointed by Batavia, and for the most part were people with no previous experience of Timor. However, mortality rates were high at this distant post as there were illnesses from which the Dutchmen were unable to protect themselves. Many opperhoofden died in office after a few years or even months, and were succeeded by a locally residing Dutchman, the second in command, on a temporary basis. All this did little to foster continuity in Fort Concordia, whose soldiers could usually be counted in numbers of two digits. Rather, such continuity would be found among the allied princes on Timor and Solor. In line with the usual lines of development for VOC offices, a small settlement slowly evolved around Fort Concordia, which hardly seemed to merit the name ‘town’ until late in the eighteenth century.

Pendahuluan Dalam sejarah Pulau Timor dikenal sebagai penghasil cendana yang sangat laku di pasaran dunia. Para pedagang dari Jawa, Malaka, Cina, Bugis, Makasar berlayar ke Timor dengan kapal layar melintasi Laut Sabu, dan Laut Timor. Perahu-perahu dagang berlabuh di bandar-bandar di pulau Timor. Bandar-bandar penting berada di Pantai Selatan Timor, karena daerah penghasil utama cendana berada di hulu sungai-sungai yang mengalir ke Laut Timor. Perahu para pedagang melayari laut Timor yang lebih menggelora dan berlabuh di pelabuhan-pelabuhan di Pantai Selatan Timor. Salah satu pelabuhan terpeting Mota Dikin berada di muara sungai Benain. Sungai Benain merupakan sungai terbesar di Timor yang daerah hulunya menjadi penghasil utama cendana. Cendana dari daerah hulu sungai Benain diangkut melalui sungai Benain pada musim kemarau yang hampir kering menuju muara. Keuntungan perdagangan cendana jatuh ke tangan penguasa dan keluarganya. Oleh karena itu siapa penguasa yang mampu menguasai daerah strategis bagi perdagangan cendana akan memperoleh kemakmuran berlipat ganda. Kemakmuran dari perdagangan cendana menjadi modal dasar perluasan kekuasaan. Para migran dari seberang mampu menguasai dan memanfaatkan daerah strategis perdagangan cendana, sehingga mereka mampu membangun kerajaan besar.

White and Dark Stranger Kings: Kupang in the Early Colonial Era Hans HÄGERDAL* INTRODUCTION In September 1658 the Dutch fort at Kupang had existed for more than five years. While its presence in the waters of Solor and Timor went back to 1613, the Dutch East Indies Company (VOC) had only decided to settle on the island itself in early 1653, beseeched by the desperate king of the Helong tribe. The fear of the might of the Portuguese, who had emerged as a dominating force on the unruly island since many years, motivated the king and the Company to join forces.

  • Lendas E Narrativas Da História Da Igreja Em Timor-Leste
    LENDAS E NARRATIVAS DA HISTÓRIA DA IGREJA EM TIMOR-LESTE Dom Carlos Filipe Ximenes Belo, S.D.B.* INTRODUÇÃO Celebra-se no corrente ano de 2015 o quingentésimo aniversário da entrada das primeiras naus portuguesas nas povoações costeiras da ilha de Timor. Para comemorar esse evento o Centro de Estudos Povos e Culturas de Expressão Portuguesa, da Universidade Católica Portu- guesa, pediu-me um pequeno contributo sobre a presença da Igreja Católica na “ilha donde provém o sândalo”. Ao longo de cinco séculos Timor-Leste e Portugal estiveram unidos por laços históricos, culturais e religiosos. E para a construção da lusofonia e do contacto entre os dois povos tiveram papel importante centenas de missionários por- tugueses: frades dominicanos (1556-1834); sacerdotes seculares das várias dioceses de Portugal continental, Açores, Índia Portuguesa e Macau (1875-1975); membros da Companhia de Jesus, da Congrega- ção Salesiana, da Congregação das Canossianas e Congregação das Dominicanas do Santíssimo Rosário e Congregação da Sagrada Famí- lia, no século XX; e, neste início do século XXI, dão o seu contributo para o relacionamento luso-timorenses missionários capuchinhos, franciscanos; irmãs das congregações: Fraternidade Franciscana da Divina Providência; Franciscanas Vitorianas e as Clarissas contemplati- vas (de Monte Real, Leiria). * Bispo emérito de Timor. 73 Dom Carlos Filipe Ximenes Belo DESCOBERTA DE TIMOR Para o relacionamento de Timor com o mundo exterior tiveram papel relevante mercadores de vários países.
