history
As early as 1522, a member of the Magellan Expedition, Antonio Pigafetta , reports of four main kings on Timor who were brothers: Oibich, Lichisana, Suai and Canabaza . Canabaza was probably Camenaça, which formed a double empire with Suai, to which Wehale ( called Oibich by Pigafetta ) was tributary. Suai also appears on a list by Afonso de Castro , a former governor of Portuguese Timor who listed 47 empires in 1868. Camenaça no longer appears here.
In 1719 the Liurais of about a dozen rich met in Camenaça to conclude a blood pact. The aim of the federal government was to expel the Portuguese and Christianity as a whole. The Camenaça Pact ( Camenace Pact ) is considered to be the beginning of the Cailaco Rebellion (1719 to 1769). Under the leadership of Camenaça, churches were destroyed and missionaries and converted Timorese were murdered. Camenaça signed a peace treaty with Portugal on September 19, 1731.
In October 1911 the Manufahi rebellion broke out . On December 29th, 1,200 Timorese sought protection in the then Dutch enclave of Maucatar for fear of Portuguese reprisals . Among them the Liurai of Camenaça and his entourage. The rebellion quickly spread throughout the region and was not finally put down until April 1912.
From 1975 East Timor was occupied by Indonesia . There was a war of liberation against the occupiers, who in turn reacted with reprisals against the population. On April 28, 1998, the residents of Camenaça were attacked by the Indonesian army. In 1999 the East Timorese decided in a referendum for independence, which again led to an outbreak of violence by pro-Indonesian militias . Camenaça fell victim to the Mahidi militia. One resident was murdered on September 12, 1999.
