Question

explain why patriliny may have been particularly important among elite families?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Patriliny means tracing descent from father to son, grandson and so on. In ancient India (C. 600 BCE-600CE) patriliny might have been particularly important among elite families because most of the texts (religious and other books) refer mostly about elite families and they do not describe about the ordinary family.
