Momolianism is a belief system of the Kadazan-Dusun people of Sabah.

Momolianism states that land is a gift from the creator, the earth is a centre of the universe and that the land connects them to the past, present and future. This system of belief, inherited from their ancestors, was passed down through the Bobohizan, (Kadazan term) or Bobolian (Dusun term), priestesses.
