No tribe 'owned' the land, in the modern use of the word - per se - as the belief system was so far removed from European ownership ideals that it does not translate correctly even today. There were several matriarchal societies; the Cherokee for instance were Matriarchal, the women owned everything except for 'trophies' held by the men, and if the man left her he left behind everything but his own personal belongings.

Gynocracy (also gynecocracy or gynaecocracy) is the principle of "rule by women". Matriarchal societies have existed in many areas, but the concept strictly applied would mean that only women had a say in the governing of the community.The early analysis by the Swiss sociologist Johann Jacob Bachofen (1815-1867) and by Friedrich Engels (1820-1895) suggested that early human societies were based on matriarchal lineage because human males were polygamous. Other sociologists believe that a patriarchal form was the dominant culture among the early Aryans of Europe.A mythical form of rule by women is the all-female Amazon culture reported by Herodotus (484-425 BC) and later Greek historians.
Japan has traditionally been a male dominated society. The world of Geisha is a strictly female dominated society. While they do use their artistic talents to entertain male customers their way of life is a matriarchal hierarchy. Geisha carry on the traditional Japanese arts of song, dance, music and conversation. Without them much of Japan's cultural artistic heritage would fade away.
