The Dimasa society is tradition bound and guided by customs. A very outstanding feature of the Dimasa culture and an important aspect of their social relation is the existence of male and female clan. The male clan is called Sengphong and the female clan is known as Jadi or Julu. Hence a Dimasa bears allegiance to both male and female clan. There are forty male clan and forty-two female clan. Whether in marriage, religious practices, or in rituals connected with the death, the clans have a significant role to play. Hence the clan plays an important part while fixing the marriage of a boy or a girl. If they belong to the same male or female clan, they are not allowed to be married. Affiliation to one’s own respective clan is quite strong among the Dimasa. That clan ties are important among the Dimasa can be understood from instances when the entire members of the clan take offence if any member of the clan is offended by someone from outside their clan.
