However, in the fact, customary law development in material meaning and judicial customary law in the meaning of formal law always faces constraints especially from positivism legal concept from time to time. Therefore, this research aims to focus on the history of the development of judicial customary law in Indonesia since the colonial period 1602 till the period after the MoU Helsinki in Aceh.
