 In the Omaha type, the same word is used for both nephew and grandson but this kinship type does not typically exhibit terminology used for "kin of a particular generation" as suspected in Etruscan kinship terms.The Etruscans were careful also to distinguish status within the family.There was a stepdaughter and stepson, "sech farthana" and "clan thuncultha" (although this may in fact mean "first son" based on the root "thun-" "one"), as well as a stepmother, "ativu" (literally "little mother"), an adopted son, "clanti", and the universal mother-in-law, "netei".
