Answer is a.)
Originally a patriarch was a man who exercised autocratic authority as a pater familias over an extended family. The system of such rule of families by senior males is called patriarchy. This is a Greek word, a composition of ÏαÏÎ®Ï (pater) meaning “father” and á¼ÏÏÏν (archon) meaning “leader”, “chief”, “ruler”, “king”, etc.
