Author/Creator: Janet Seeley
One Sentence Summary: This article examines the variety of household groupings found in a comparatively small area of the Nepalese hills.

Description: This article examines the variety of household groupings found in a comparatively small area of the Nepalese hills, 2000 square kilometers, covered by Lumle agricultural centre's extension command area. The article aims to show that even within the Nepalese context of patrilineal kinship groups organized around the family, the concept of the household can be little more than a flexible yardstick with which to measure social organization.
