Tawalisi

Tawalisi (ca. 1350 C.E–1400 C.E.) is a Southeast Asian kingdom described in the journals of Ibn Battuta.[1][2]

Guesses to the location of Tawalisi have included Java,[3]: 115  Pangasinan, Luzon, Sulu, Celebes (Sulawesi), Cambodia,[4] Cochin-China, the mainland Chinese province of Guangdong, and practically every island in South Asia beginning with ta. In the Philippines, Pangasinan was considered to be the most-likely location of Tawalisi, but this has since been disputed.[5]
