What is a Patriarchal Clan

Also known as "Patriarchal Clan Communes". It is a stage of the primitive communal system. After the matrilineal clan commune, corresponding to the Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age. The formation of large clans centered on men, who dominated production, life and public **** affairs, with adult men serving as clan leaders. Descent was calculated on a patrilineal basis, property was inherited by children, men were the nucleus of the family and society and had the right to dominate the family's property and to dominate the members of the family, and wives were subordinate to their husbands. The social reason for this was the exclusion of women from social production and the transfer of able-bodied men into the productive economy, such as agriculture and handicrafts, where they became the main force of social production, acquired the right to dispose of the means of subsistence and transformed their personal means of subsistence into private property in the first place, which gave rise to the need and the practice of transmitting property to their children. This historical process was finalized in the form of men taking wives and establishing monogamous families. The growing population tended to divide into patrilineal family communes, which still practiced *** ownership of the means of production, but at a much reduced scale. When individual monogamous families began to produce and live independently, the family became the basic unit of social production and life, and the clan system came to an end in history. The existence of patrilineal clan communes is generally believed to be in the late Neolithic period and the early Bronze Age.
