Abstract

Customary rights are rights owned by indigenous peoples in Indonesia, such as adat land, adat customs, rituals, culture, adat order and life values to respect their environment which arises based on inner and outer relationships. Indonesian legislation has provided protection for indigenous rights and all the traditional rights of indigenous and adat peoples, but the reality is that in East Sumba district, that the regional government does not provide maximum protection for indigenous rights. The existence of Indigenous Rights in East Sumba Regency still exists and is preserved by the adat law community, by utilizing Indigenous land for the people’s living needs and carrying out the Marapu beliefs that are still hereditary. Legal protection for indigenous rights is still far from the mandate of Article 18 B of the 1945 Constitution, and other laws and regulations, because regional regulations actually limit their existence. Constraints in the legal protection of customary rights are the existence of customary rights not accompanied by ownership of customary land rights certificates.
