Overview

A sweeping exploration of humanity's oldest and most enduring institution, Hidden Origins of Marriage uncovers the deep symbolic layers that shaped union long before modern love, law, and identity. Moving across archaeology, anthropology, mythology, and emotional life, this book reveals how ancient cosmologies, kinship systems, ritual gestures, and domestic rites continue to echo within contemporary relationships. Through immersive prose and a panoramic view of human history, it traces marriage from its evolutionary beginnings to its modern reinventions, showing how the bond between two people has always been a mirror of our attempts to structure intimacy, alliance, continuity, and meaning. A work of synthesis and rediscovery, it restores depth to a familiar institution and invites readers to see partnership as a living thread connecting the present to the first spark of human imagination.
