History of the kingdom
The city of Palu originated from the unity of four villages, namely: Besusu (Pandapa), Tanggabanggo (Siranindi) now called Kamonji, Panggovia now called Lere, Boyantongo now called Kelurahan Baru. They formed a customary council called Patanggota. One of the duties was to select the king and his assistants.
