- Refers to the peace pact or peace council used in the province of Kalinga in the northern part of the Philippines. It is a unique judicial system wherein the pagta or peace pact holder appointed by the pangat (tribal leaders) of a certain tribe holds a peace agreement with another tribe.
- In this system, two tribes agree to ally with each other. The tribes in Kalinga are known for their tribal-wars wherein a life is repayable only with another life. This vengeful tribes will not settle unless the tribe of the person who committed the misdemeanor will surrender or will be killed.
