formerly Macassar

City (pop., 1995 est.: 1,060,257), Celebes (Sulawesi), Indonesia.

Already a thriving port when the Portuguese arrived in the 16th century, it came under control of the Dutch, who built a trading station there in 1607 and finally deposed the sultan in 1667. It was made a free port in 1848 and the capital of the Dutch-sponsored state of Indonesia Timur (East Indonesia) in 1946. In 1949 it became part of the Republic of Indonesia. It is the Home of Hasanuddin University (founded 1956).
