About this document

Ndau Marriage and Procreation Culture by ScribdTranslations is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses marriage as a symbol of procreation in the Ndau culture of Mozambique. The Ndau practice exogamous marriage between clans and family groups, although this rule is often ignored today. Marriage is formalized with the payment of "lobolo," which is currently a monetary amount, but in the past primarily consisted of capulanas. The main objective of Ndau marriage is procreation, to continue the family lineage through patrilineal descent.
