==History==
[[File:Tokalalaea Megalith 2007.jpg|thumb|Megalithic stone in Central Sulawesi]]
There are over 400 granite [[megalith]]s in the area of the Lore Lindu National Park, of which around 30 represent human forms. They vary in size from a few centimetres to approximately {{convert|4.5|m|ft}}. The original purpose of the megaliths is unknown.<ref name="National Geographic">[http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2001/12/1212_TVindomegaliths.html National Geographic: ''Explorer's Notebook: The Riddle of Indonesia's Ancient Statues'', 12 December 2001], retrieved 9 October 2010.</ref> Other megaliths in the area are large stone pots (''Kalamba'') accompanied by stone lids (''Tutu'na''). Various archaeological studies have dated the carvings from between 3000 BC to 1300 AD.<ref name="Jakarta Post">[http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2005/05/06/c-sulawesi039s-lore-lindu-park-home-biological-wealth.html Sangadji, Ruslan: ''C.

Central Sulawesi Province has many caves, seven of which have ancient pictures and, based on 2011 research by a joint Indonesian and Australian team, the pictures are known to have been drawn at least 40,000 years ago (about the same age as pictures found in the [[Caves of Monte Castillo]], [[Spain]] which are known as the oldest ancient pictures in [[Europe]]).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://surabaya.tribunnews.com/2014/10/12/gambar-di-gua-sulteng-berumur-40-ribu-tahun |title=Gambar di Gua Sulteng Berumur 40 Ribu Tahun |author=Satwika Rumeksa |date=12 October 2014}}</ref>
Some of the oldest bronze objects are discovered in Central Sulawesi. The Makassar Axe is a 1st-century AD [[Indonesian ceremonial bronze axes|bronze axes]] probably used as a valuable object in a ceremony. The Kulawi tribe of Central Sulawesi still practice the exchange of heirloom bronze object e.g. the [[taiganja]], whose basic form has been discovered throughout the eastern part of Indonesia.
Islam reached the region in the 17th century, shortly after the Islamic avowal of Gowa, the powerful kingdom at the south part of the Sulawesi island. The Dutch colonial rule was established in the 18th century and began the protestantic missionary of the population. About a quarter of them are now Protestant, which is the highest percentage of the Indonesian archipelago. After the Japanese occupation in the Second World War, the region belonged to the Province North Sulawesi and separated in 1964 to the new formed Province Central Sulawesi.
Between 1999 and 2001 the region has been plagued by inter-religious violence between Muslims and Christians, where over 1,000 people were killed.<ref name="religious conflict">{{Cite episode |title=Asia |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/equator/5264406.stm |access-date=15 April 2018 |series=Equator |series-link=Equator (TV series) |first=Simon |last=Reeve |network=[[BBC]] |station=[[BBC Two]] |date=22 August 2006 |number=2 |language=en}}</ref> The [[Malino II Accord]] was thus made in 2001.

In the [[13th century]], several kingdoms had been established in Central Sulawesi such as the Kingdom of Banawa, the Kingdom of Tawaeli, the Kingdom of Sigi, the Kingdom of Bangga, and the Kingdom of Banggai. The influence of Islam on the kingdoms in Central Sulawesi began to be felt in the [[16th century]].The spread of [[Islam]] in Central Sulawesi was a result of the expansion of kingdoms in [[South Sulawesi]].<ref>{{Cite book|url=http://books.google.co.id/books?id=sj22AAAAIAAJ&q=Dato+Karama+tiba+di+teluk+palu&dq=Dato+Karama+tiba+di+teluk+palu&hl=en&sa=X&ei=bdWFUq3EHMbHrQeq04C4Ag&redir_esc=y|title=Antropologi Indonesia, Volume 16, Issue 47|last=Jurusan Antropologi, Fakultas Ilmu Social dan Ilmu Politik|publisher=Universitas Indonesia|year=1989|pages=137}}</ref><ref name="AIDST">{{Cite book|url=http://books.google.co.id/books?id=LOoCAAAAMAAJ&q=dato+karama&dq=dato+karama&hl=en&sa=X&ei=S9SFUpuwC8i3rgfcr4HIDw&redir_esc=y|title=Adat Istiadat Daerah Sulawesi Tengah|last=Proyek Penelitian dan Pencatatan Kebudayaan Daerah|publisher=Departemen Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Indonesia|year=1977|pages=19-21}}</ref> The influence that first came was from the Kingdom of Bone and the Kingdom of Wajo.

The province was part of the Indies for the next three century, before the Dutch were ousted by the [[Empire of Japan|Japanese]] during [[World War II]]. After the Japanese [[Surrender of Japan|surrenders]], the area was incorporated into the new Republic of Indonesia. Initially, the area was part of [[North Sulawesi]] before being seperated on 13 April 1964.
According to [[UNICEF]], Central Sulawesi is a province with a significant number of young people. As many as 1 million people or 35 percent of the total population in this province are children. More than three out of four children live in rural areas.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.unicef.org/indonesia/id/Bahasa_Sulawesi_Tengah_lowres2.pdf|title=SDG untuk Anak-Anak di Indonesia

However, more households are in a vulnerable position and live with income that is slightly above the poverty line. In addition, three-quarters of children experience deprivation in two dimensions non-income poverty or more, with that inequality striking between urban and rural areas.

=== Pre-colonial period ===
[[File:Tokalalaea Megalith 2007.jpg|thumb|Megalithic stone in Central Sulawesi]]
There are over 400 granite [[megalith]]s in the area of the Lore Lindu National Park, of which around 30 represent human forms. They vary in size from a few centimetres to approximately {{convert|4.5|m|ft}}. The original purpose of the megaliths is unknown.<ref name="National Geographic">[http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2001/12/1212_TVindomegaliths.html National Geographic: ''Explorer's Notebook: The Riddle of Indonesia's Ancient Statues'', 12 December 2001], retrieved 9 October 2010.</ref> Other megaliths in the area are large stone pots (''Kalamba'') accompanied by stone lids (''Tutu'na'').

Central Sulawesi Province has many caves, seven of which have ancient pictures and, based on 2011 research by a joint Indonesian and Australian team, the pictures are known to have been drawn at least 40,000 years ago (about the same age as pictures found in the [[Caves of Monte Castillo]], [[Spain]] which are known as the oldest ancient pictures in [[Europe]]).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://surabaya.tribunnews.com/2014/10/12/gambar-di-gua-sulteng-berumur-40-ribu-tahun |title=Gambar di Gua Sulteng Berumur 40 Ribu Tahun |author=Satwika Rumeksa |date=12 October 2014}}</ref>
Some of the oldest bronze objects are discovered in Central Sulawesi. The Makassar Axe is a 1st-century AD [[Indonesian ceremonial bronze axes|bronze axes]] probably used as a valuable object in a ceremony. The Kulawi tribe of Central Sulawesi still practice the exchange of heirloom bronze object e.g. the [[taiganja]], whose basic form has been discovered throughout the eastern part of Indonesia.
[[Islam]] reached the region in the 17th century, shortly after the Islamic avowal of Gowa, the powerful kingdom at the south part of the Sulawesi island. Areas along the western coast of Central Sulawesi, from Kaili to Tolitoli, were conquered by the [[Sultanate of Gowa|Sultanaete of Gowa]] around the middle of the 16th century under the leadership of King Tunipalangga.{{sfnm|1a1=Druce|1y=2009|1pp=232–235|2a1=Druce|2y=2009|2p=244}} The area around the Gulf of Palu is an important center and trade route, coconut oil producer, and "entrance" to the interior of Central Sulawesi.{{sfn|Henley|2005|p=72}} On the other hand, the [[Gulf of Tomini]] area is largely under the control of the Kingdom of Parigi.
With the widespread influence of [[South Sulawesi]], Islam spread to the region Islam first spread to the coastal area of Central Sulawesi.. In the middle of the 16th century, two kingdoms, namely [[Buol Regency|Buol]] and [[Luwuk]], accepted Islamic teachings. Since [[1540]], Buol has been in the form of an sultanate and led by a sultan named Eato Mohammad Tahir.<ref>{{Cite book|url=http://books.google.co.id/books?id=sj22AAAAIAAJ&q=Dato+Karama+tiba+di+teluk+palu&dq=Dato+Karama+tiba+di+teluk+palu&hl=en&sa=X&ei=bdWFUq3EHMbHrQeq04C4Ag&redir_esc=y|title=Antropologi Indonesia, Volume 16, Issue 47|last=Jurusan Antropologi, Fakultas Ilmu Social dan Ilmu Politik|publisher=Universitas Indonesia|year=1989|pages=137}}</ref><ref name="AIDST3">{{Cite book|url=http://books.google.co.id/books?id=LOoCAAAAMAAJ&q=dato+karama&dq=dato+karama&hl=en&sa=X&ei=S9SFUpuwC8i3rgfcr4HIDw&redir_esc=y|title=Adat Istiadat Daerah Sulawesi Tengah|last=Proyek Penelitian dan Pencatatan Kebudayaan Daerah|publisher=Departemen Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Indonesia|year=1977|pages=19-21}}</ref>
=== Colonial era ===
In the beginning of the [[17th century]], the [[Dutch people|Dutch]] started arriving in Central Sulawesi. Under the pretext of securing his fleet from pirate attacks, the [[Dutch East India Company]] (VOC) built fortresses in Parigi and Lambunu. Soon afterwards, the region began to fall into the Dutch sphere of influence. In the [[18th century]], the Dutch forced the kings of Central Sulawesi to come to [[Manado]] and [[Gorontalo]] to take an oath of loyalty to the VOC. This would mark the beginning of the Dutch colonial rule in the region for the next three century.
Initially, the colonial government paid little attention to the region. In [[1824]], representatives of the Kingdom of Banawa and the Kingdom of Palu signed the ''Korte Verklaring'' (Short Agreement) with the colonial government.{{sfn|Henley|2005|p=232}} Dutch ships began to sail frequently in the southern part of the [[Gulf of Tomini]] after [[1830]].{{sfn|Henley|2005|p=222}}
By the 19th century, most of the interior part of Cental Sulawesi still remained unexplored. In [[1860]], a government official named Johannes Cornelis Wilhelmus Diedericus Adrianus van der Wyck, managed to visit [[Lake Poso]] in 1865 — becoming the first European and Dutch to do so. This step was followed by another government official, Willem Jan Maria Michielsen, in 1869.{{sfn|Henley|2005|p=222}} The proposal to occupy the Poso region was rejected — referring to the anti-expansion policies issued by the colonial government at that time.{{sfn|Coté|1996|p=93}} It was not until [[1888]] that locals of the region began to establish relations with the government in [[Batavia]] through a short agreement signed by kings and local authorities, as an anticipatory measure against the possibility of the spread of [[British Empire|British]] political and economic influence in the region.{{sfn|Coté|1996|p=93}}
During this period, Central Sulawesi was under the jurisdiction of Gorontalo Afdeling, based in [[Gorontalo]]. G. W. W. C. Baron van Höevell, Gorontalo Resident Assistant, worried that the strong influence of Islam in Gorontalo would extend to the Central Sulawesi - which at that time the population was mostly are adheres to [[Animism]] or other [[Folk religion]]. He contacted the Dutch missionary institution, the [[Netherlands Missionary Society|Nederlandsch Zendeling Genootschap]] (NZG), and asked them to place a missionary in this area. In [[1892]], the NZG then sent a missionary named [[Albert Christian Kruyt|Albertus Christiaan Kruyt]], who was stationed in Poso. This step was continued in 1894, when the government appointed Eduard van Duyvenbode Varkevisser, as Controller or government official who would become a supervisor and regional leader in Poso.{{sfnm|Coté|1996|Henley|2005|1p=93|2p=222}}
In [[1905]], parts of Poso were involved in guerrilla rebellions against Dutch forces, as part of a coordinated Dutch military campaign to annex entire Sulawesi mainland. One of the famous military campaigns was the "pacification" of the Kingdom of Mori in the Wulanderi War that took place in [[1907]].{{sfn|Coté|2006|p=97}} At the beginning of the [[20th century]], movements resisiting the Dutch colonial rule started appearing. In addition to local movements, movements also based in [[Java]] entered. The first organization to establish a branch in Central Sulawesi was the [[Sarekat Islam]] (SI), established in Buol Toli-Toli in [[1916]]. Another organization that developed in this area was the [[Indonesian National Party]] (PNI) whose branch was established in Buol in 1928. Other organizations opened branches in Central Sulawesi are [[Muhammadiyah]] and [[Islamic Association Party of Indonesia]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://anakuntad.com/2013/12/belajar-dari-sejarah-sejarah-pergerakan-pemuda-di-sulawesi-tengah/|title=Belajar dari Sejarah: Sejarah Pergerakan Pemuda di Sulawesi Tengah - anakUntad.com|date=2013-12-08|work=anakUntad.com|access-date=2018-11-23|language=id-ID}}</ref>
The resistance reached its peak on 25 January 1942. A group of resistance fighters led by I.D. Awuy captured government officials such as Controleur Toli-Toli De Hoof, Bestuur Assistant Resident Matata Daeng Masese, and Controleur Buol de Vries. On February 1, 1942, the [[Indonesian flag]] was raised for the first time in Toli-Toli. But this situation did not last long because a week later the Dutch troops staged a counter-attack and recaptured Tolitoli.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com.tw/books?id=JvGHCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA131&lpg=PA131&dq=bendera+merah+putih+di+toli+toli+1942&source=bl&ots=CI2DkXS9nH&sig=fOo9Dm8jovFGXovtJqttUi7UbFE&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwii_vuF3-neAhVIwbwKHaJHDCYQ6AEwBXoECAMQAQ#v=onepage&q=bendera%20merah%20putih%20di%20toli%20toli%201942&f=false|title=Sejarah Daerah Sulawesi Tengah|date=1984-01-01|publisher=Direktorat Jenderal Kebudayaan|language=id}}</ref>
=== Contemporary era ===
[[Imperial Japanese Army|Japanese forces]] landed in the area, precisely in [[Luwuk]] on May 15, 1942.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://sites.google.com/site/gragenews/clients|title=Sejarah Sulawesi Tengah - GRAGE NEWS|website=sites.google.com|access-date=2018-11-23}}</ref> The Japanese succeeded in expelling the Dutch and taking control of the Central Sulawesi in just a short time. During the [[Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies|Japanese occupation]], people's lives were increasingly depressed and the misery of all people's activities was only intended to support Japanese warfare. This situation lasted until Japan [[Surrender of Japan|surrendered]] to the [[Allies of World War II|Allies]] and was followed by the [[Proclamation of Indonesian Independence|proclamation of the independence]] of the Republic of Indonesia. At the beginning of independence, Central Sulawesi was part of the Sulawesi province.<ref>[http://hukum.unsrat.ac.id/pp/pp_21_1950.pdf Peraturan Pemerintah nomor 21 tahun 1950]</ref> The Dutch attempted to return to the region, resulting in a [[Indonesian National Revolution|bloody war]] between the Dutch and the Indonesian. After the [[Dutch–Indonesian Round Table Conference]], the Dutch recognize Indonesia and withdrew from the region.
Central Sulawesi was intially part of [[North Sulawesi]] with the capital in [[Manado]], but it was seperated on 13 April 1964.

[[File:Hyorhinomys07.JPG|thumb|The [[Hyorhinomys stuempkei]] is a species of [[rodent]] that can be found in [[Tolitoli Regency]], Central Sulawesi]]
=== Flora and Fauna ===
Sulawesi is a unique border zone in the [[Asia]] [[Oceania]] region, where the flora and fauna differ greatly from the Asian flora and fauna that stretches across Asia with the [[Borneo]] border, also different from the Oceania flora and fauna in [[Australia]] to [[New Guinea]] and [[Timor]]. The virtual line that limits this zone is called the [[Wallace Line]], while the peculiarities of flora and fauna are called [[Wallacea]], because this theory was put forward by [[Alfred Russel Wallace|Alfred Wallace]], a British researcher who helped find the theory of evolution with [[Charles Darwin]].<ref>{{citation|last=Wallace|first=Alfred Russel|title=The Malay Archipelago|url=https://archive.org/stream/malayarchipelag05wallgoog#page/n42/mode/2up|pages=25–29|year=1869|accessdate=22 Jan 2013}}</ref>
Sulawesi has its own flora and fauna. The island's unique animals are buffalo-like [[anoa]], [[babirusa]] which are slightly hairy and have fangs in their mouths, tertiary, tonkena monkeys Sulawesi, colorful Sulawesi marsupial cuscus which are varieties of marsupials and maleo birds that lay eggs on hot sand.
Sulawesi's forest also has its own characteristics, dominated by agatis wood which is different from the Great Sunda which is dominated by areca nut (rhododenron species). The variety of flora and fauna is the object of scientific research and study. To protect flora and fauna, national parks and nature reserves have been established such as [[Lore Lindu National Park]], Morowali Nature Reserve, Tanjung Api Nature Reserve and finally the Bangkiriang Wildlife Reserve.

== Culture ==
Central Sulawesi is rich in culture inherited from generation to generation. Traditions concerning aspects of life are preserved in people's daily lives. Old beliefs are cultural heritage that are maintained and carried out in several forms with various modern influences and religious influences.
Because many ethnic groups inhabit Central Sulawesi, there are also many differences between these ethnic groups which are harmonious peculiarities in society. Those who live on the western coast of [[Donggala Regency]] have mixed with [[Bugis|Bugis people]] from [[South Sulawesi|South Sulawes]]<nowiki/>i and the people of [[Gorontalo]]. In the eastern part of [[Sulawesi]], there are also strong influences from [[Gorontalo]] and [[Manado]], seen from the [[Luwuk]] regional dialect and the distribution of the [[Gorontaloan people|Gorontaloan People]] in Bualemo sub-district which is quite dominant.
There are also influences from [[West Sumatra]] as seen in the wedding ceremony decorations. [[Donggala Regency]] has a tradition of weaving fabrics inherited from Hindu times. Weaving centers are in Donggala Kodi, Watusampu, Palu, Tawaeli and Banawa. Double tie weaving systems, which are special techniques patterned in [[Bali]], [[India]] and [[Japan]], can still be found.

While the mountain tribes has its own culture that is much influenced by the [[Toraja|Toraja people]] in [[South Sulawesi]]. However, tradition, customs, clothing models and house architecture are different from Toraja, as an example is that they use banyan skin as a body warmer clothes. The traditional Central Sulawesi house is made of poles and wooden walls that have thatched roofs and only have one large space. Lobo or duhunga is a shared space or hall that is used for festivals or ceremonies, while Tambi is a residence. Apart from the house, there is also a rice barn called Gampiri.
Buya or sarong like a European model, up to the waist and keraba, a kind of blouse equipped with gold thread. The rope or crown on the head is thought to be the influence of the European empire. The banjara shirt embroidered with gold thread is a men's shirt that is up to knee length. Silk dressers or sarongs stretching along the chest to shoulders, colorful crowns of heads and machetes slipped around the waist complement traditional clothing.
=== Music ===
Music and dance in Central Sulawesi varies between regions. Traditional music has instruments such as [[Gong|gongs]], [[Kulintang|kakula]], lalove and jimbe. This musical instrument functions more as entertainment and not as part of religious rituals. In the Kaili ethnic area around the west coast - Waino - traditional music - is displayed when there is a death ceremony. This art has been developed in a more popular form for young people as a means of finding partners in a crowd. Many dances come from religious beliefs and are displayed during festivals.
The famous community dance is Dero from the Pamona people, [[Poso Regency]] and then followed by the Kulawi people , [[Donggala Regency]]. Special dero dances are displayed during the harvest season, guest welcoming ceremonies, thanksgiving and certain holidays. Dero is a dance where men and women hold hands and form a circle. This dance is not an ancestral inheritance but was a habit during the Japanese occupation of Indonesia during World War II. This dance is a traditional dance from Central Sulawesi.

+=== Colonial era ===
+In the beginning of the [[17th century]], the [[Dutch people|Dutch]] started arriving in Central Sulawesi. Under the pretext of securing his fleet from pirate attacks, the [[Dutch East India Company]] (VOC) built fortresses in Parigi and Lambunu. Soon afterwards, the region began to fall into the Dutch sphere of influence. In the [[18th century]], the Dutch forced the kings of Central Sulawesi to come to [[Manado]] and [[Gorontalo]] to take an oath of loyalty to the VOC. This would mark the beginning of the Dutch colonial rule in the region for the next three century.
+
+Initially, the colonial government paid little attention to the region. In [[1824]], representatives of the Kingdom of Banawa and the Kingdom of Palu signed the ''Korte Verklaring'' (Short Agreement) with the colonial government.{{sfn|Henley|2005|p=232}} Dutch ships began to sail frequently in the southern part of the [[Gulf of Tomini]] after [[1830]].{{sfn|Henley|2005|p=222}}
+
+By the 19th century, most of the interior part of Cental Sulawesi still remained unexplored. In [[1860]], a government official named Johannes Cornelis Wilhelmus Diedericus Adrianus van der Wyck, managed to visit [[Lake Poso]] in 1865 — becoming the first European and Dutch to do so. This step was followed by another government official, Willem Jan Maria Michielsen, in 1869.{{sfn|Henley|2005|p=222}} The proposal to occupy the Poso region was rejected — referring to the anti-expansion policies issued by the colonial government at that time.{{sfn|Coté|1996|p=93}} It was not until [[1888]] that locals of the region began to establish relations with the government in [[Batavia]] through a short agreement signed by kings and local authorities, as an anticipatory measure against the possibility of the spread of [[British Empire|British]] political and economic influence in the region.{{sfn|Coté|1996|p=93}}
+
+During this period, Central Sulawesi was under the jurisdiction of Gorontalo Afdeling, based in [[Gorontalo]]. G. W. W. C. Baron van Höevell, Gorontalo Resident Assistant, worried that the strong influence of Islam in Gorontalo would extend to the Central Sulawesi - which at that time the population was mostly are adheres to [[Animism]] or other [[Folk religion]]. He contacted the Dutch missionary institution, the [[Netherlands Missionary Society|Nederlandsch Zendeling Genootschap]] (NZG), and asked them to place a missionary in this area. In [[1892]], the NZG then sent a missionary named [[Albert Christian Kruyt|Albertus Christiaan Kruyt]], who was stationed in Poso. This step was continued in 1894, when the government appointed Eduard van Duyvenbode Varkevisser, as Controller or government official who would become a supervisor and regional leader in Poso.{{sfnm|Coté|1996|Henley|2005|1p=93|2p=222}}
+
+In [[1905]], parts of Poso were involved in guerrilla rebellions against Dutch forces, as part of a coordinated Dutch military campaign to annex entire Sulawesi mainland. One of the famous military campaigns was the "pacification" of the Kingdom of Mori in the Wulanderi War that took place in [[1907]].{{sfn|Coté|2006|p=97}} At the beginning of the [[20th century]], movements resisiting the Dutch colonial rule started appearing. In addition to local movements, movements also based in [[Java]] entered. The first organization to establish a branch in Central Sulawesi was the [[Sarekat Islam]] (SI), established in Buol Toli-Toli in [[1916]]. Another organization that developed in this area was the [[Indonesian National Party]] (PNI) whose branch was established in Buol in 1928. Other organizations opened branches in Central Sulawesi are [[Muhammadiyah]] and [[Islamic Association Party of Indonesia]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://anakuntad.com/2013/12/belajar-dari-sejarah-sejarah-pergerakan-pemuda-di-sulawesi-tengah/|title=Belajar dari Sejarah: Sejarah Pergerakan Pemuda di Sulawesi Tengah - anakUntad.com|date=2013-12-08|work=anakUntad.com|access-date=2018-11-23|language=id-ID}}</ref>

+=== Flora and Fauna ===
+Sulawesi is a unique border zone in the [[Asia]] [[Oceania]] region, where the flora and fauna differ greatly from the Asian flora and fauna that stretches across Asia with the [[Borneo]] border, also different from the Oceania flora and fauna in [[Australia]] to [[New Guinea]] and [[Timor]]. The virtual line that limits this zone is called the [[Wallace Line]], while the peculiarities of flora and fauna are called [[Wallacea]], because this theory was put forward by [[Alfred Russel Wallace|Alfred Wallace]], a British researcher who helped find the theory of evolution with [[Charles Darwin]].<ref>{{citation|last=Wallace|first=Alfred Russel|title=The Malay Archipelago|url=https://archive.org/stream/malayarchipelag05wallgoog#page/n42/mode/2up|pages=25–29|year=1869|accessdate=22 Jan 2013}}</ref>

+Sulawesi has its own flora and fauna. The island's unique animals are buffalo-like [[anoa]], [[babirusa]] which are slightly hairy and have fangs in their mouths, tertiary, tonkena monkeys Sulawesi, colorful Sulawesi marsupial cuscus which are varieties of marsupials and maleo birds that lay eggs on hot sand.
+
+Sulawesi's forest also has its own characteristics, dominated by agatis wood which is different from the Great Sunda which is dominated by areca nut (rhododenron species). The variety of flora and fauna is the object of scientific research and study. To protect flora and fauna, national parks and nature reserves have been established such as [[Lore Lindu National Park]], Morowali Nature Reserve, Tanjung Api Nature Reserve and finally the Bangkiriang Wildlife Reserve.
