"There were two forms of marriage in the Mesopotamian region, one more characteristic
of nomadic tribes, the other of plow agriculture. The older form was marriage without
joint residence. It allowed the woman greater autonomy and made divorce easier for
her. The Code of Hammurabi formalized the other form, which gradually became
predominant. In this marriage system the wife resides in the husband's house and is
dependent on his support. Divorce is, for the wife, unobtainable. The marriage is a
marriage by purchase even when the result is not ownership of the wife but legal power
of the husband over the wife. It defines a new power relationship between husband and
wife, for which there was no equivalent in earlier society."
