Biocoenosis of the Likatier tribe: The importance of kinship

Matriarchal cultures in history are often characterised by an intensive occupation with the topic of kinship. We have been told that in the early days of Greece it was part of the welcoming ritual of strangers and guests to get to know each other through comprehensive questions and to explore whether one is related to another.

In many religious communities, their members refer to themselves as "brothers and sisters" in order to express that they feel connected to one another like blood relatives. "Blood brothers" mix their blood in a ritual to give their friendship a deeper dimension of insolubility.

Kinship in a positive sense means having your place, being protected, whatever happens, having people around you who never leave you. Relationship gives security and security and kinship also makes it possible to see one's own structures mirrored in different variations by the relatives. In this sense the Likatier maintain the relationship with their relatives also outside of the tribe. The tribal members are loyal to all the family members and clan members with whom they are related.
