Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origin of the curious and widespread practice of symbolic 'capture' in marriage ceremonies. The author traces the origins of this tradition to primitive societies where capturing women from other tribes was common due to the prohibition against marrying within one's tribe. Over time, this practice evolved into a symbolic ritual in cultures that had become more peaceful, serving as a reminder of a bygone era. The book draws on a wide range of anthropological and historical sources to support its arguments, providing valuable insights into the evolution of marriage customs and the complex relationship between kinship, marriage, and social structure. By exploring the historical roots of this peculiar symbol, this book sheds light on the intricate ways in which human societies have developed. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origins and development of social structures in diverse human societies, primarily through the lens of exogamy, the practice of marrying outside one's social group. Drawing on evidence from ancient literature, historical records, and observations of contemporary societies, the author traces the evolution of marriage customs, kinship systems, and inheritance laws. The work explores how inequalities in cultural development have shaped these practices and examines the influence of factors such as warfare, female infanticide, and totemism on the formation of social norms. This comprehensive study offers a nuanced understanding of early human societies, providing valuable insights into the origins of our social institutions and customs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
