Taoists maintain that in pre-Chou times the Chinese knew only their mother and not their father because the sexual unions were free, without the binding effect of matrimony. It is obvious that in a society without formal marriage, the children would be brought up by the women who bore them and that the children would also take their names from their mothers. For, in the words of Ashley Montagu, "Maternity is a matter of certainty, paternity is a matter of inference.".Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Taoists maintain that in pre-Chou times the Chinese knew only their mother and not their father because the sexual unions were free, without the binding effect of matrimony. It is obvious that in a society without formal marriage, the children would be brought up by the women who bore them and that the children would also take their names from their mothers. For, in the words of Ashley Montagu, "Maternity is a matter of certainty, paternity is a matter of inference.".
520 $a Many tantalizing clues point to the existence of early Chinese matriarchy. For example, all of the legendary culture-heroes such as Huang Ti and Shen Nung are said to be products of miraculous conception, possessing a mother but not a father. All take their names from their mothers as well. Mu Liu-sen's study of Pai Chia Hsing reveals that a name such as Chi (Huang Ti's surname, from his mother) is considered the most venerated and ancient of all Chinese names. The very word for "name," hsing , contains the female radical. Furthermore, at least 20% of all modern Chinese surnames are derived from names with the female radical.
520 $a Anthropologists such as Marvin Harris point out the importance of a mother's brother in the nurture of her children within a matriarchal system, since the father might be absent or unknown. In Shang times, kingly succession was believed to have gone from uncle to sororal nephew, and the uncle-sororal nephew bond has traditionally been strong.
520 $a A major portion of the paper is devoted to a study of the female radical section of the Shuo Wen Chieh Tzu of Hsu Shen who lived about 100 A.D. This section gives us the fewest clues concerning early matriarchy, perhaps because of the relatively late date of compilation of the Shuo Wen, but we do learn some interesting things about the role of women in Han times.
520 $a The development of agriculture and the resulting material progress were apparently the most significant factors in the evolution from matriarchy to patriarchy in China. As men settled into farming they were able to keep an eye on their wives and children in a way not possible within a hunting society. Anthropological theory and facts of Chinese history are compared to determine the nature and the time of the transition.
