Who was the paterfamilias in early rome.?

Paterfamilias is how power was ruled in a family. It was the oldest MALE in the family. In my class we call each family a family - state, why? Because the oldest had EVERYTHING. He was the person responsible for everything. If his son got some land he would be in controle of it, and the next oldest male would get it after the first died. So in conclusion, Paterfamilias is the mini king!
