To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
V. The Family among the Aborigines of Bengal.
If we proceed with our investigations by studying the familial and matrimonial regime of the aborigines of Bengal, we shall find, among populations having probably a common origin, systems of family and marriage which are very dissimilar.
Here and there we discover the maternal family, or customs proving that this familial fashion has formerly been in force.
According to Buchanan, among the Buntar, who are neighbours to the Nairs, a father is free d...uring his lifetime to make presents to his children, but at his death all that he possesses goes to his sisters and their children. The Kochh, also, have no kinship or succession except through the women. The mothers arrange the marriages; the fathers never interfere, and the husband goes to live with his wife and his mother-in-law, whom he obeys. As for widows, they choose themselves young husbands when they are rich. Among the Yerkalas of Southern India, the maternal uncle has the right to claim for his sons the two eldest daughters of his sister.
