Who keeps the wedding band and engagement ring after a break up?

A long time ago, prospective hubbys gave animals to the potential in-laws in return for the hand of their daughter in marriage. Of course you didn't give the bride a chicken for her hand because you automatically provided the meals anyway. Now you give the gift of an engagement and wedding band as a promise to love and keep her, etc, etc, etc. If the union breaks up, that gift stays with the now soon to be ex-bride. It depends who broke up with whom. If the guy gave you the ring and he caused the breakup, it is yours. However, if it is an heirloom set of rings from his family and you did not marry, it is more right to return the set to him. In fairness, I would also consider if he is still paying on the rings and if so, return the rings.
