The objective of this paper is to develop and present a novel approach to the conflict of ethics on the foundation of legal theory, particularly the legal rules governing conflict of laws. The focus is on the conflict of ethics impacting Indigenous Americans in the context of Occidental settler colonialism in the Americas. This paper contains three major contributions. First, the interplay between Indigenous American concepts categorized as ethics in the Occident and Occidental ethics in a settler colonial context was assessed. Second, Occidental concepts in Roman Law and Saint Thomas Aquinas' natural law was used to determine the precedence of Indigenous American equivalents to ethics vis-à-vis Occidental ethics in the Americas. Third, rules-based solutions synthetized from conflict of laws in international law were applied to conflict of ethics in the settler colonial context in the Americas.Keywords: Cultural and epistemic racism, decoloniality, indigenous Americans, settler colonialism, sumak kawsay, wakohtowin.Resumen: El objetivo de este artículo es desarrollar y presentar un enfoque novedoso del conflicto de ética sobre la base de la teoría legal, particularmente las reglas legales sobre el conflicto de leyes. La atención se centra en el conflicto de ética que afecta a los indígenas en el contexto del colonialismo en las Américas. Este artículo contiene tres contribuciones principales. Primero, se evaluó la interacción entre los conceptos de los indígenas categorizados como ética en el occidente en el contexto colonial. Segundo, los conceptos occidentales en la ley romana y la ley natural de Santo Tomás de Aquino se usaron para determinar la procedencia de los equivalentes indígenas en las Américas. Tercero, las soluciones basadas en reglas sintetizadas a partir del conflicto de leyes en el derecho internacional se aplicaron al conflicto de ética en el contexto colonial en las Américas.Palabras clave: Racismo cultural y epistémico, descolonialidad, indígenas en las Américas, colonialismo, sumak kawsay, wakohtowin
