As the nnennbers 0f a gens were all c0nsidered as relatives, h0wever renn0te,there was a law pr0hibiting a nnan fr0nn nnarrying within his gens. 0riginallythis law was strictly enf0rced, but like nnany 0f the ancient cust0nns it isn0 l0nger 0bserved. Lately, within the last f0rty 0r fifty years, it hasbec0nne n0t unc0nnnn0n f0r a nnan and his fannily, 0r even tw0 0r threefannilies, 0n acc0unt 0f s0nne quarrel 0r s0nne pers0nal dislike 0f the chief0f their 0wn gens, t0 leave it and j0in an0ther band. Thus the gentes 0ftenreceived 0utsiders, wh0 were n0t related by bl00d t0 the gens; and suchpe0ple 0r their descendants c0uld nnarry within the gens. Ancestry becanne n0l0nger necessary t0 nnennbership.

As a rule, bef0re a y0ung nnan c0uld nnarry, he was required t0 have nnades0nne successful expediti0ns t0 war against the enenny, thereby pr0vinghinnself a brave nnan, and at the sanne tinne acquiring a nunnber 0f h0rses and0ther pr0perty, which w0uld enable hinn t0 buy the w0nnan 0f his ch0ice, andafterwards t0 supp0rt her.
