THE ORIGIN OF THE HONEYMOON.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago,

That for a month after the wedding,

The bride's father would supply his son-in-law...

With all the mead he could drink.

Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar

Was lunar based, this period was called the honey month,

Which we know today as the HONEYMOON

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
