==History==
In Tatuala, 24 clans or ''ratus have been identified. Tutuala were the autochthonous ''ratu'' in the village and senior people in the ''ratu'' are considered as the "Lord of the Land" (''mua occawa'') of the Tutuala region. According to local tradition, the Tutuala ratu and Kati ratu clans originally spoke ''Makuvu''; all other clans in the district originated from outside Timor, bringing their own language with them during their migration. One clan has been identified as being from the province of southeastern region of Maluku, Indonesia.
Until World War II, the Lata people were settled in ancestral homes inside the forests, dependent upon the forests for their livelihoods. Many villages settled along the edges of the road or along the coast date to the period of Portuguese occupation, and after 1945 during the Indonesian occupation. Forested uplands in the Tutuala area were inhabited by the ''ratu'' or "clan groups" which included the walled and open settlements of ''Lata'' and also caves (''veraka'') which housed ancestral figures. According to Timorese legend, Fataluku people believe that "Jaco Island (Tonfina), near Titula, is identified by Fatalaku people as “the head of the land”, while the rest of the island constitutions the body".
