No idea. I mean my exposure to it is with the bible and christiantity but asia seemed to have a lot of it to. Pagan europe felt a bit less so especially as you head north. Native peoples im not sure but did not seem to be so stark. I honestly never understood why inheritance and property did not flow down the maternal line. That would have at least equaled things out a bit and makes much more sense. I mean you know a womens kid is her kid mostly.
