Solution

The correct match is "Moso and tisese". The Moso, a society in China, practices a custom called "tisese" which refers to a form of non-marital relationship. In this practice, men visit women at night for sexual and emotional intimacy, but do not live together and the man has no responsibility for any children produced.

The other options are incorrect because:

  1. Yanomami: This society is known for its practice of inter-village endogamy, not parallel cousin marriage.
  2. Nayar and zadruga: The Nayar are a matrilineal society from India, not associated with the zadruga, which is a type of rural community traditionally common among South Slavic people.
  3. Bosnia and tarawad: Bosnia is a country in Southeastern Europe, not a society, and tarawad is a form of extended matrilineal family structure practiced by the Nayar of Kerala, India.
