Lineage Societies refers to organized groups or entities that consist of individuals who trace their lineage or ancestry back to a common ancestor or group. These societies often have a hereditary nature, meaning that membership is passed down through generations. They are deeply intertwined with the study of genealogy, the exploration, and tracing of lines of descent or development. Lineage societies may also have strong ties to art, as historical artifacts, crests, and heraldry are often significant elements of their culture. Being a part of such societies is often seen as a personal hobby, with individuals dedicating substantial time and resources towards researching their ancestry, participating in society events, and preserving their familial heritage.
