"Lineage is a descent group that can demonstrate their common descent from a known apical ancestor.
Clan is a descent group that claims common descent from an apical ancestor (but often cannot demonstrate it, or "stipulated descent").
Moieties is a descent group that coexists with only one other descent group within a society
Phratries is a descent group composed of two or more clans each of whose apical ancestors are descended from a further common ancestor. "
