The custom of a brother marrying in place of a deceased husband. The purpose is to maintain the ties of the parents' tribe that were established by the first marriage. It is seen all over the world, including cases where the brother inherits the rights and obligations of the widow. In Japan, it is also called "reverse marriage." → Sororeto Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
