Kalisusu

Kalisusu was a small kingdom on the northern coast of Buton Island, also known as Kulisusu. Its people spoke a Celebic language related to those of their neighbours.

Kalisusu became one of the four Barata, guardian kingdoms of the Sultanate of Buton, whose rulers likened their support to the outriggers of a canoe. By the 1530s its people were reported to be Muslim, when Buton's sixth ruler converted under Sheikh Abdul Wahid. The former royal hall at Wasalabose remained a centre of Buton ceremonial life.
