The key subject here is about Kinship but as it is practiced among the Ashanti's.

<h3>How is kinship practiced in the Ashanti's?</h3>

Patrilineal Kinship

The relationship between boys and females of patrilineal descent is via their dads but not through their mothers. However, only men pass on their family identity to their progeny.

Children born to a woman are patrilineal descendants of her spouse. Patrilineal descent has been used by many civilizations throughout history to pass on titles and property. Even now, most surnames come from patrilineal ancestry.

For instance, a child usually gets the last name of his or her father. The patrilineal succession tradition, in which the crown is inherited by the male heirs, was another practice followed by royal dynasties.

Absolute primogeniture, which ensures that the first-born child would inherit the throne regardless of gender, has replaced agnatic succession in the majority of European royal lineages since the turn of the 20th century.

Matrilineal Kinship

The type of unilineal descend that follows a female line is known as matrilineal unilineal descent. Two persons are deemed related if they can be traced back to the same female ancestor through female ancestors using this pattern.

Both male and female children are descendants of their mothers through matrilineal descent, albeit only daughters are capable of passing along the family line to their offspring.

Social interactions between children and their dads in matrilineal societies typically diverge from what most people would expect because the biological father is not a part of their matrilineal family.

The next elder male kinman in the example of ego below, his mother's brother (MoBr), would be the person with the official responsibilities that European society associate with a father.

Identify other people from Mesopotamian society that your character would interact with. Explain what these other characters do
Mamont248 [21]

Ancient Mesopotamia society members held jobs such as slaves, priests, farmers, weavers, tradesmen, pottery, and herdsman. Your character could interact with a member of society with any one of these occupations (even with the King of Mesopotamian society) depending on their societal status. Keep in mind that priests were of the upper class and slaves were of the lower class. Also note that there was no rigid structure to societal class so at anytime a person's societal status could potentially change.

Keep in mind that two major cultural groups existed during this time period in this area. This includes the Sumerians (responsible for temples and palaces, city states, and first writings) and the Akkadians (established the first Mesopotamian empire). These two groups existed together peacefully for the most part. Your character could belong to one of these cultural groups.
