Biblically, the only time a woman inherited directly (other than a dowry) was when she had no brothers. A man's property would never be inherited by his sister or aunt. If a daughter inherited land from her father, then she would be unable to marry a man from outside her father's tribe. However, if she had already married an outsider, then her father's property would revert to one of his brothers, either directly or via Levirate marriage.
