Best Answer

In terms of a diamond engagement ring Archduke Maximilian I of Habsburg is thought to be the first man who offered an engagement to his bride Mary of Burgundy in 1477.

Before that rings were given or exchanged between engaged couples but they weren't what we'd consider today to be engagement rings.

If the engagement ring you gave your fiance is a family heirloom (passed down from generation to generation) then she should give you the ring back. If you bought her the engagement ring then it's hers to keep. If and when you get engaged again your next fiance would not want a ring you had given another woman.

no. the guy cannot keep what he gives you, when he gave you the gifts he gave them to you, he has no right what so ever to take them back. If he gave you gifts, they are yours, but if he gave you an engagement ring, and YOU break off the engagement, the ring goes back to him, as it is a token of a future contract.
