What is a clan community, how did the clan community differ from earlier collectives?

The tribal community appeared in the late Paleolithic period. This form of organization of life was far superior to the primitive herd. In the community, there was a relationship based on the division of labor. Usually the tribal community consisted of several representatives of the same family. A woman played a key role in it. Therefore, matriarchy reigned at this stage of development. The advantages of the tribal community are that it was easier to survive in conditions of joint activity, the population increased, and people became more adapted to life.
