Date: 29 Aug 2003 05:54 am (UTC)in the 'gay marriage through the ages page,' though, which didn't reference that book that i remember, it talked about matelotage possibly being used between two women or between larger groups. and one of the things i read (same one?) indicated that rather than a romantic gay union, matelotage was probably meant to deal with the dispersal of their property after death. the similarities to marriage--certainly the binding partnership--seem to carry across those explanations.
