1. What are the characteristic features of Customary law?
2. What is the main source of Customary law? 
 
Customary Law is a type of legal system that serves as the basis of, or has influenced, present-day laws 
in approximately 40 countries – mostly in Africa, but some in the Pacific islands, Europe, and the 
Middle East. Customary law is also referred to as "primitive law," "unwritten law," "indigenous law," 
and "folk law." There is no single history of customary law such as that found in Roman civil law, 
English common law, Islamic law, or the Napoleonic Civil Code. The earliest systems of law in 
human society were customary, and usually developed in small agrarian and hunter-gatherer 
communities. 
As the term implies, customary law is based upon the customs of a community. Common 
attributes of customary legal systems are that they are seldom written down, they embody an 
organized set of rules regulating social relations, and they are agreed upon by members of the 
community. Although such law systems include sanctions for law infractions, resolution tends to be 
reconciliatory rather than punitive. A number of African states practiced customary law many 
centuries prior to colonial influences. Following colonization, such laws were written down and 
incorporated to varying extents into the legal systems imposed by their colonial powers.
