If it is a matriarchal society, cousins generally refer to the son of the mother's sister, that is, the son of the aunt. Because you have the same surname.
If it is a patriarchal society, cousins generally refer to the son of the father's brother, that is, the son of the uncle. Because you have the same surname.
In a patriarchal society, if there are too many boys in a family to support, several children may be adopted or become adoptive parents.
After adoption, he lives in his wife's house, and the children born take his wife's surname. If an uncle or father is adopted by his wife, the uncle's child is not a cousin, but a father.
My aunt is not married, but married, so the children born to my aunt are also called cousins. Because they share the same surname and live together.
If the mother is unmarried and the father is a son-in-law, then the children born to my uncle are also called cousins. Because they share the same surname and live together.
