 THE BEDUIN OF ARABIA
Bedouin society is patriarchal, all members of a tribe claiming descent by male line from a common ancestor.

Even now every Bedouin tribe still claims descent from one or the other group and the rivalry between the two has caused many civil wars throughout history, not only in the Arabian Peninsula, but all over the Arab world.
