Abstract: This chapter reviews the excavation results from the Leang Buida and Bukit Tiwing sites in the Talaud Islands of North Sulawesi, with a focus on the faunal remains and likely fishing tools. The available Carbon-14 determinations date the occupation of Leang Buida on Kabaruan Island to around AD 1000–1600 and Bukit Tiwing on Salibabu Island to around AD 1500–1800. From comparing the excavation results to data from other sites in Southeast Asia, East Asia and the Pacific, we outline the possible development of marine and terrestrial use of the remote Talaud Islands during the Metal Age and historic times.
