The third type of marriage was particularly preferred by the lower classes because if the couples were not married there would be no exchange of wealth even as gifts and in case the marriage fell out for some reason, there would be no hassle regarding the redistribution of the given money from either side.


And going by the descriptions of the three marriages, Cambyses and Alexander would have to be put in the third type of marriage.


But Alexander had one big objectionable point with this type of marriage.


And that was the use of the word 'continuous,' in the clause.


A couple had to continuously stay together for more than a year to be considered married.


And this 'loophole' was not unknown to the people of Thesos.


On the contrary, its use was so prevalent that it was in fact actual couples that were extremely rare among the lower strata of Thesos.
