J.) in our times when the social conditions hold such a prominent place among the pro- blems to be solved. it would perhaps be inter— esting to learn something of the primitiVe so- cial conditions of the Aryan race. In the very earliest times. man probably lived in societies of greater or less extent. These societies or groups could not have been very large nor could they be situated very near each other. as their pursuits were pastor- al. People living by these means cannot live in thickly-settled districts. Supposing that the same extent of territory was required in those times as by the natives in éustralia. the whole of the United States could only sup- port about 20.000 inhabitants or about one person to every 4000 now inhabiting it. Their habits and customs afiord an interesting study. The social organizations originated in the Patriarchal Family. the members of which. were all related either by blood or marriage. The head of the family was the patriarch. the 56 AUGSBURG EKKO The other memb- ers were the male descendants on the fathers. oldest son of its founder. side and their wives. and the female descend- ants as were still unmarried. As soon asa woman married. she ceased to be a member of her original family and became a member of her husbands~ family. On the founder's death, his eldest son suc- ceeded as patriarch; in case the eldest son died. and left no son, his eldest brother he- came patriarch. ' This little group of individuals seems ori- ginally to have existed independent of any The patriarch was the only source of authority; to him everythin outside authority. belonged. and all the members of the family This absolute power of the patriarch was in time modified Custom must have had a very powerful influence in were responsible to him. bv the growth of various customs. those times when there was not even a vague notion of law. This was especially the case in the inflicting of punishments. These cus- toms subsequently resulted in laws. and we find special duties assigned to persons occu- pying particular positions: to the young men were assigned the more active outdoor duties: to the }naidens the milking of cows and to the older women. household duties. Fromjhe importance of having a knowledge of the family customs arose the family council. or as it is called in Sanskrit. "Sabha". consist- ing of the elders of the family or the "Sabho- cita". presided over by the "Sabhapati" or president of the assembly. _ Before this picture of the patriarchal family is complete. there are three customs especially to be noted: the sacred fire and its mainten- ance. the marriage ceremony. and the custom of adoption. Fire»worship was so widely spread over the earth. that there is scarcely a race whose tra- dition is entirely devoid of it. But the sacred house-tire of the Aryans is interesting chiefly in its connection with other household customs 'in which it held an important place. The fire was always kept burning on the hearth, Show less
