What is the difference between matrilineal and patrilineal societies?
One has to do with mothers and one has to do with fathers..... Breaking up the word in Matrilineal you have Matri mean Maternal and lineal meaning lineage. Lineage deals with your Kinship grouping, or family tree. In the United States, and many other countries, work as a Bilineal, bi meaning two or both, society which means that the baby who is born into a Bilineal society is considered a part of both the father and mother family lines. So in a Matrilineal society a baby born into this type of society will only have a family tree from his/her mothers' family line. Then for Patrilineal societies, breaking it up into two words meaning Paternal meaning father, and lineage, meaning family line, the baby will only be considered apart of his/her fathers' family line. In matrilineal and patrilineal societies there can sometime be a difference in how much power each parent has. But to answer your question the difference between a matrilineal and a patrilineal societies are what family line a child born into each society is considered a part of. The child can either be a part of the mothers' line (matrilineal) or the fathers' line (patrilineal) depending on the society.
