dc.description.abstractThis chapter explores the micro-politics of marriage practices among a Tamang and Ghale population in north central Nepal. Based on ethnographic and survey research in Timling (Tipling), it establishes that marriage practices are related to clan hierarchies and follow a logic that maintains those hierarchies. It then establishes the implications of that logic for marriage ages and age at first birth.en_US
