Asco-Manthian kinship is a patrilineal kinship system used by Asco-Manthian societies, the largest of which being Asconians. Being Namuno-Ethian peoples, their vocabulary reflects, for the most part, that of Proto-Namuno-Ethian. However, Asco-Manthian kinship differs significantly from those of related cultures in that it employs a system of social classes, called kads (Ascon: kade, sg. kad). Every genn (family, clan) forms part of one of six kads, passed down through the male line. People cannot marry within their same kad, even if they are of a different genn, as they are considered extended family.
Origins
The origins of this kinship system date back before the split between the Asconic and Manthic language branches, evidenced by the fact that both groups have the same kad names. It is evident from the etymology of these names that Khot culture was a strong influence in their development, as they all trace their origin to Khot muraar (clans). It is believed that kads arose as the idea that Asco-Manthian people were descended or otherwise related to Khots in some way was getting traction. When the muraar would come in contact with the Asco-Manthians, these would informally "adopt" them and claim a common ancestry.
Vocabulary
Kinship vocabulary in Asco-Manthic society bears close similarity to those of other Namuno-Ethian cultures.
