Conflicts over natural resource control in Central Kalimantan, particularly regarding customary land in oil palm plantation development, often disadvantage indigenous communities. Formal legal mechanisms are considered insufficiently responsive to local values, leading the Dayak people to employ the customary ritual of Hinting Pali as a means of dispute resolution that carries both spiritual and social legitimacy. This study aims to examine the meaning of Hinting Pali in conflict resolution, the reasons for its use by indigenous communities, and the prospects for its recognition within the framework of national law (ius constituendum). Theoretically, the research contributes to the enrichment of customary law studies, while practically it provides valuable insights for the government, businesses, and customary institutions in promoting equitable conflict resolution. The research adopts an empirical legal approach with a descriptive-analytical nature. The study was conducted in Katingan Regency, Central Kalimantan, involving indigenous communities, Damang, mantir adat, as well as government and company representatives. Samples were selected purposively. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis, and were examined qualitatively using a juridical-sociological approach. The findings reveal that Hinting Pali functions as a sacred prohibition to halt activities on disputed land, prevent conflict escalation, and restore social harmony. Despite its effectiveness, challenges remain in the form of misuse and legal overlaps. Hinting Pali has the potential to serve as an alternative model for resolving natural resource conflicts that is just, sustainable, and feasible for integration into the national legal system.
