Description

Buttu Tombonantoban is a named highpoint in the highland area of South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. In the Toraja-Mamasa language, 'buttu' means hill or mountain. Its elevation is recorded at about 1,577–1,580 metres above sea level, but this figure is auto-computed from a digital elevation model (DEM) by a Wikipedia bot rather than field-surveyed; in reality the point rises only about 3 metres above the surrounding terrain, making it a very minor local rise rather than a standalone peak. The surrounding terrain is hilly to the northeast and more mountainous to the southwest. Data on this feature is very limited and should be stated honestly: its identity and coordinates derive from a single NGA-GNS toponym record (2009) propagated into OpenStreetMap, Wikidata (Q25298519) and an auto-generated Cebuano Wikipedia stub built from GeoNames data. No verified trail information, independent field notes or summit photograph exists for this point.
