The Builo is a mountain in East Timor with a height of 1234  m . It is located in the east of the administrative office of Ossu (municipality of Viqueque ) in the area of Suco Ossorua . In 2017 the Suco Builo was separated from Ossorua. Sources for drawing boundaries are not yet available.

There are plans to add the area around the Builo with around 3000 to 4000 hectares to the Important Bird Area of the neighboring Monte Mundo Perdido .

history

From 1976 the Builo was a retreat for the FALINTIL , who fought against the Indonesian invaders. Here she founded a base de apoio , a resistance base that offered refuge for refugees from Ossu, Uato-Lari , the city of Viqueque , Uatucarbau and Baucau . In mid-1977 the Indonesian army discovered the resistance base and attacked it. Many civilians were killed in the process. Some fled to the Matebian .
