    This paper examines the distribution and diffusion of the seven patterns of sibling classifaction given by the author. The author then studies the association between descent and sibling terminology.

  8. "This social classification and differentiation [of moieties] . . . should tend to produce a corresponding effect on kinship terminology, and thus result in the phenomenon of bifurcate merging" (57)Murdock, George Peter - Bifurcate merging: a test of five theories, 1947 - 2 Variables
