About Marga Lintang
The Lintang family is part of the Mandailing kinship world. In Batak tradition, your marga is more than a surname — it is a key to tarombo, marriage custom, and belonging.
Note: Names like Simalungun, Toba, Karo, Mandailing, Angkola, and Pakpak are Batak ethnic groups, not marga. Your marga is the clan name (for example Damanik or Sinaga under Simalungun).
Tarombo notes
- 01 Lineage is typically traced through the father (patrilineal marga system).
- 02 Marriage within the same marga is traditionally forbidden by adat.
- 03 Women keep their birth marga and are often identified as boru Lintang.
