[A daily historical knowledge 4] Matrilineal clan commune: The basic unit of primitive society formed by maternal blood relations in the early days of clan communes. The main characteristics of matrilineal clan communes are the dominance of women, the calculation of generations from the matrilineal line, the inheritance of property by the matrilineal line, the knowledge of the mother without the father, etc. At this time, the system of extra-tribal marriage was implemented, that is, there was no intermarriage within the same clan, and only men and women of the same generation between different clans could marry each other. Later, it developed into a couplet marriage, in which the male and female masses who marry each other have a major spouse, but it is not strict. Matrilineal clan communes arose around the late Paleolithic period, flourished in the Neolithic age, and began to be gradually replaced by patrilineal clan communes.
