This study showed, that the orientation toward the stem family system has continued to function, with the IE paradigm continuing to be found in funerals.However,Chubu region to have "multiple chief mourners",including not only the widow and the eldest son but also other children;in some cases,there have even been "husband and wife chief mourners".
