Excerpt from A Social History of Ancient Ireland, Vol. 2: Treating of the Government, Military System, and Law; Religion, Learning and Art; Trades, Industries and Commerce; Manners, Customs and Domestic Life of the Ancient Irish People The fact that the husband paid the bride-price did not prevent the bride bringing goods or valuables of her own, if she had them. Any number of cases might be cited where the young woman brought jewels, or gold, or herds, or land: and after the marriage, these continued to be her own special property. Sometimes the friends of the young couple made a collection for them, which was called T int (i.e. Collection': pron. Tinnole), Of which two-thirds belonged by law to the man, and one-third to the womani This custom was common among high and low, and we meet with instances everywhere in the tales. Our present custom of making a young married couple presents is not unlike the old Irish tz'nnole. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
