Babylonian women typically had limited agency in choosing their husbands, as marriages were often arranged by their families to strengthen alliances and improve social status. However, women could express preferences and sometimes had input in the selection process, particularly in higher social classes. Dowries played a significant role, with families negotiating the terms of marriage based on financial and social considerations. Overall, while women had some influence, patriarchal norms primarily dictated the process.

What was status of women around 1000 BC?
We know very little about this issue from as far back as 1000 BC, but we can probably extrapolate back from the middle to late centuries of the firste millennium BC. In the Greek world, women were treated very much as equals to men, in relation to both secular and religious issues. Women had equal sexual rights and generally could make their own choice for a husband. Polygamy was illegal. In the Middle East, including Palestine, women had a lower status and, for example, it was generally expected that a woman's father would choose her husband. Polygamy was permissible, even if not frequently practised. Only the husband could choose to divorce.
