\begin{abstract}
Geologically, Eastern Indonesia is a 180o orocline created by the
dynamic interaction of three opposing tectonic plates. Additional
complexity resulted from the sporadic breakup of Gondwana that
fragmented the northern margin of New Guinea-Australia (NGA) and caused
crustal blocks to collide with SE Asia before the Pliocene arc-continent
collision with Australia. One consequence is that protoliths of two
distinct metamorphic associations on Timor have mixed Gondwanan and SE
Asian affinities. This article presents a reclassification of the
metamorphic rocks of Timor that links their formation and radiometric
ages to tectonic provenance and key events that occurred as NeoTethys
was consumed by subduction. Four periods of metamorphism are recognised,
plus radiometric dating evidence of peak and cooling P-T conditions and
the tectonic settings that caused metamorphism and deformation of
different complexes on the island. Key conclusions are: {[}1{]} a
basement complex accreted to the Sunda margin from Gondwana in the
Cretaceous. {[}2{]} Oceanic crust and pelagic sediment of Jurassic to
Early Cretaceous age form a tectono-metamorphic complex comprised of
volcanic greenstones, greenschists, mn-rich sediments, and radiolarian
cherts metamorphosed in the pre-collision Sunda forearc. {[}3{]} Eocene
back arc spreading led to injection of gabbro and peridotite, and a
metamorphic episode that peaked at 45Ma. {[}4{]} The metamorphosed
Permo-Triassic Aileu Complex originated on Gondwana but includes Sunda
upper plate peridotite that became attached during subduction and
extrusion at the close of the Miocene.%
