Abstract
Various anthropological studies indicate that a country with a high level of biodiversity is usually a country inhabited by a variety of traditional indigenous peoples. The research is an empirical research, by analysing the legal protection of the Indigenous Peoples of Moronene Hukaea Laea in the conservation areas. The results show that the existence of the indigenous peoples of Moronene Hukaea Laea has been passed down for generations. Led by customary chiefs or totongano wonua, chosen based on father’s lineage. At first, the landowners were the property of the Gods (Enteiwonua) who inhabited land and forests, to obtain rights to land and forests so that humans must perform Mooli rituals to become the owners of the land and forest areas. Hereditary ownership of the so-called joint rights to land and forest area (Wita ni mbue).
