In the Spiti system, the eldest son inherits the property. The eldest daughter gets the mother's jewellery. The younger siblings get nothing. They have to fend for themselves. Many usually fall back on the social security system of the Trans Himalayas -- the monasteries and nunneries. This is one of the reasons why even today religion plays a major role in the lives of the people. |
