It dates back longer than any of us would like to accept.The very powerful Roman Empire iniciated a decree (pre:Jeshua) where young men and women with complete domicile(residence and residential area) would reach an age (provided they wern't monstra) could enter into contracts. An award in the form of what looked Iike a unconventional key was then granted by an elder of the town within the area under Roman control provided the person was in the state of Virginity. The key would then only be given on those terms. In the event of you reaching the 'age' in question, although you were no longer in that complete abstinate state you would still enter in to contracts minus the the key. Bear in mind that you could not receive a Key if you have broken that vow which is deemed sacred for many even today.
