It is generally believed that the earliest inhabitants of Palau came from the East Indonesia archipelago. According to the ancient Palau tribes, the history of human living in the rock archipelago can be traced back to at least 1000 BC. These early Palau residents developed a rather complex matriarchal social system. The property and currency are inherited by the female patriarch, but still owned by the big family. The earliest European discovery of Palau should be in 1543 ad, which was discovered by Ruy Lopez de Villalobos from Spain. Spain claimed the ownership of Palau in 1686, but did not carry out the work of colonization and construction on Palau. Until 1783, when the British Captain Henry Wilson's ship arrived at ulong island of Palau, it was hit by a shipwreck, which opened Palau's important contact with the West. British captain Wilson was assisted by Koror leader ibel to repair the ship and sent his son Prince lebu to England to receive ecation. Although Prince lebuu later arrived in London and died of smallpox. Many British people were deeply moved by his appearance in England and aroused their interest in Palau. Then Britain became the main trading partner of Palau and lasted for more than a century. It was not until the Spanish returned to Palau in 1885. Before Spain sold Palau to Germany, Spanish missionaries introced Christianity and characters to Palau. Due to the war between Spain and the United States, Germany took control of Palau in 1899. Then they began to rece the destructive influence of Western diseases on local residents. The Germans forced the Palau people to work in coconut tree planting and other undertakings
