6.3 Archaeological Sites:
The noted archaeological sites in Timor-Leste are Lospalos, Baucau and Baguia. Fresh explorations are likely to
add substantially to the knowledge of the history and chronology of ancient Timor-Leste and various aspects of her
life and culture. The majority of Timorese citizens are observant Catholics; however, there is a very long tradition of
Animism which remains highly influential. The first inhabitants are thought to be descendant of Australoid and
Melanesian peoples. The inhabitants of Timor are descended from three waves of migrants. The first to settle the
island, Vedo-Australoid people related to Sri Lankans, arrived between 40,000 and 20,000 B.C. A second wave of
Melanesian people around 3,000 B.C. drove the original inhabitants, called Atoni, up into the interior of Timor-Leste.
The Melanesians were followed by Malay and Hakka people from southern China
