Those are historically validated [1], [2], [3] Matrilineality has a great amount of power assocation/inheritance, since it if the men die off, and inheritance goes to a wife, there is little disincentive for war from a female perspective, and, potential more incentive. Imagine a warlike society with a divorce court where you know you will get 100%. If women control the assets, and inheritance flows through them, that is a great deal of power. Furthermore, the ability to raise the future ruler is also the ability to influence that future rule, and comes with it frequently regency. The idea of a powerless female nobility I do not find to be compatible with history. After everything is said, we speak English.
