The researcherused field observation techniques, namelysurface surveying and documentation.The results showed that megalithic remains in the form of ancient tombs inthe Inoweehi II (Pakandeate) tomb complex were quite diverse, the number of tombs in this tomb complexnum-bered fourteen tombs with among them five tombs which were still equipped with gravestones. The results of theclassification of the entire tomb have been found three types of tombs, among others, L2LTS (oval gravestone,tier 2, and imperfect tomb circle shape), P-K (flat headstone, no tomb, and square box tomb shape), K-K (squaresquare gravestone, without tombs, and square box tombs).
