Facts and practical information

The Lena Hara cave is the main cave of a system of solutional caves in the Lautém District at the eastern tip of East Timor, close to the village of Tutuala. Others are Ile Kére Kére and Jerimalai. Lene Hara has provided evidence that Timor has been occupied by humans since at least 35,000 years Before Present and thus is evidence that humans crossed the waters of Wallacea between the Pleistocene continents of Sunda and Sahul.
