There were many reasons that could spur two clans to join themselves in matrimony. The union could be social, political, commercial, and even spiritual. In this last case, a marriage between Christians and heathens would have required the conversion and baptism of the groom or bride.

This armring made of solid gold could have been a marvelous wedding gift.
