Patrilocal and Matrilocal Residence

Video not yet published
to the StudyWalks catalog
State

Patrilocal residence expects a couple to live with or near the husband's family; matrilocal residence expects the same near the wife's family.

Show

DNA evidence from ancient European burials shows patrilocal patterns thousands of years old, alongside written evidence of the practice today.

Watch for

A residence pattern names where a couple settles; it does not by itself determine household authority.
