Abstract

The province of East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) is among the areas in the eastern part of Indonesia, which geographically and regionally is bordered by Australia and Timor Leste. The area that consists of some big islands (often known as Flobamor: Flores-Sumba-Timor) and a number of small ones has a strategic role in the study of life in the past, particularly as the human and faunal migration routes in East Indonesia. Based on the results of archaeological research carried out in that area thus far, we know that some islands in East Nusa Tenggara have very interesting archaeological potencies and resources, especially with regard to cultural remains as lithic tools from the prehistoric period. Once of the islands as a topic this study is Flores, especially Liang Bua and Soa basin site whereas among research by Arkenas in since 1980 to present now. Both sites have specific chronology and character but looked similar as lithics technology. As a chronologic, Soa basin areas is oldest site at central Flores from early – middle Pleistocene epoch, while Liang Bua site as a settlement cave has younger chronology from the late Pleistocene. Cultural development and chronology a both this site to be discussed as a topic problem in ancient life context at Flores.
