- ". . . peoples with lineage nomenclatures . . . have or have had, unilineal descent . . . raise domesticated plants or animals or both . . . have at least some individual ownership and inheritance of strategic resources . . . and some differences in rank among members of a kin group . . . " (46-47)Dole, Gertrude E. - The lineage pattern of kinship nomenclature: its significance and development, 1965 - 6 Variables
This paper investigates correlations between social structure and the pattern of kindship nomenclature. Results suggest that lineage nomenclatures are associated with several aspects of social structure, including unilineal descent, the domestication of plants and animals and inheritance.

The author aims to come up with an evolutionary or developmental pattern of kinship nomenclature and in this paper takes preliminary steps to correlate different types of nomenclature with levels of complexity. Suggests that more complex societies have more dimensions of nomenclature (e.g., generation, sex, descent, degrees of descent, etc.)
