- Abstract
North Bolaang Mongondow is one of the areas in North Sulawesi Province that has the potential for archaeological remains, especially those from the royal period. Historical data and oral traditions in the community contain information about the kingdoms that existed in this region in the past, namely the Bintauna Kingdom, Kaidipang Kingdom, and the Bolaang Itang Kingdom. Concerning strengthening the history of these kingdoms, it needs to be supported by relevant archaeological data. The archaeological method applied in the form of field data collection in the form of surveys and observations succeeded in identifying and mapping the distribution of archaeological sites related to the existence of the three kingdoms. These archaeological sites are scattered almost throughout the North Bolaang Mongondow area, in the form of ancient graves, king’s palaces, old mosques, and former residential structures. Based on the results of analysis and interpretation, these sites verify the existence of the three kingdoms in Bolaang Mongondow. The distribution of the site covers coastal areas to inland and mountains. As for strengthening the chronological aspect, it is necessary to do a dating analysis on each of these sites.
