Everything about Maubara totally explained
Maubara is a village in
East Timor and is a subdistrict of the
district of
Liquiçá, just west of the city of
Liquiçá.
During the beginning of the Portuguese occupation, it was taken by the
Netherlands. There is a historic
Dutch fort, located at the entrance to the village on the seaside overlooking the bay. The
fort still contains the original cannon and is quite well preserved. Later,
Portugal negotiated with Holland and regained the site in a trade for
Flores Island, which was occupied by the Portuguese at that time.
The village is also the location in which the infamous
Besi Merah Putih militia was created. In 2000, on the western outskirts of the village, the
UNTAET Crime Scene Detachment conducted sixteen
exhumations in two days, most being victims of the
Manuel Carrascalão House Massacre.
Most of the inhabitants speak
Tocodede.
