英文例句/中文翻译：

1、

A son was never chosen to succeed his father as sachem, since mother-right prevailed among the Iroquois and the son consequently belonged to a different gens; but the office might and often did pass to a brother of the previous sachem or to his sister's son.

由于易洛魁人奉行母权制，因而酋长的儿子属于别一氏族，所以从不选举前一酋长的儿子做酋长，而是往往选举他的兄弟做酋长，或者选举他的姊妹的儿子做酋长。
