The head of the family is known as the ‘patriarch’. He is usually the oldest member of the family.

He is generally considered authoritative, has control over household and financial resources and dictates the conduct of all the other members too. Typically, we see male heads who have been acquiring privileges through inheritance based on their lineages.

 The headship is the representative of the household and accumulates social capital as a right.
