Explanation:
Matrilineal society means that after marriage women do not go to the men’s place whereas men come to women place. As the men have a long history to be gone away from family, the inheritance is passed from a mother to her daughter and hence led to the matrilineal form of society system. Although king passes his throne to son but not his but his sister’s son.
