KERAJAAN LOLODA: MELACAK JEJAK ARKEOLOGI DAN SEJARAH
Main Article Content
Abstract
A few historical source mention the Kingdom of Loloda as one of the great kingdoms of North
Maluku, contemporaneous with the four Islamic kingdoms that developed into sultanates,
namely Ternate, Tidore, Bacan and Jailolo. However, compared to these powers, the
development of Islamic rule in Loloda is not well known through historical sources, and the
kingdom is even said to have collapsed in the early 20th century. In this article I discuss the
results of research to trace archaeological evidence about the history of the Kingdom of
Loloda. Starting with literary sources, I then describe the results of archaeological surveys
in the area mentioned in historical text and public information. Archaeological surveys
indicate that the center of the Loloda kingdom was located in the Loloda watershed in Loloda
Sub-district, Halmahera Barat District. Archaeological research results suggest the
Kingdom of Loloda grew from the 16th century and experienced collapse at the time of
European colonialism.
