thumb|Four Rajput wives of Ranjit Singh perform sati, detail from a painting of the funeral of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, ca.1840
I cannot write an accurate overview of polygamy based solely on this image caption, as it only depicts a specific historical incident (sati practice among wives of Maharaja Ranjit Singh) rather than providing general information about polygamy itself. To write an accurate, neutral overview as requested, I would need context that actually defines and explains polygamy.

Polygamy (from Late Greek , "state of marriage to many spouses") is the practice of marrying multiple spouses. When a man is married to more than one wife at the same time, it is called polygyny. When a woman is married to more than one husband at the same time, it is called polyandry. In contrast, in sociobiology and zoology, researchers use "polygamy" more broadly to refer to any form of multiple mating.
