A system of inherited wealth is not part of the explanation for egalitarian societies among foragers.

Explanation:

The societies of hunter-gatherers or foragers were egalitarian in their nature. Meaning that the members of such societies were equal and had shared rights for the resources foragers gathered together.

Because all resources were shared or in a shared use, it was not possible for a single individual or one family to accumulate wealth, which then could be inherited by their descendants.
