Kujaveh” in the wedding ceremony of Turkmens


As a result, Turkmens in every category have a common ancestor and are very close to each other. According to this, among Turkmens, marriage does not mean connecting families and having a common ancestor. For them, marriage is important because it causes one of the economically active people, that is, the woman, to be added to the bride’s family and an active member to the groom’s family. For this reason, the family that takes the woman must pay Shirabha. Turkmens consider marriage a custom of life and a part of it.
