Early and rare coverage or this archaic custom, founded by mountain families from the areas surrounding the Apuseni Mountains in the northwestern of Romania to arrange weddings for their unmarried children. Until today this event takes place on the 3rd Sunday of July at so-called Mount G?ina (also called „Mount of Love“, 1486m). Traditionally the event started Saturday evening with a gathering of boys and men drinking and singing all night. At dawn wives and daughters joined, the latter with a valuable dowry collected over the years and presented with beautiful carved chests. The girls then were required to dance to prove that they were not lame. Merchants sold food, drinks and white goods. The climax arrived when future brides were presented by their parents by offering food and drinks to young men and their fathers. “Negotiations” began… First documented only in 1816 and elaborately described in Hungarian writer Mór Jókai's novel »Szegény gazdagok« (The Poor Rich, 1860), »The Maiden Fair of Mount G?ina« started to change in the 1950s, shortly after this documentation was published. Nowadays the event is more of a folk festival and a foclor market, mainly for tourists.

VI. 947.“ Cover in parts foxy, paper time-stained, otherwise well preserved copy of this curious and particularly scarce documentation, only the 2nd of its kind and probalby the first with ethnographic photo material included.

Enyed, Zalathna, Mediasch, Hermannstadt, Hatszeg, Petroseni, Ôzt River, etc. Scale: 1/300,000. Sibiu (Sibiiu - Hermannstadt - Nagyszeben) is a city in Romanian Transylvania. The city straddles the Cibin River, a tributary of the river Olt. The first official record referring to the Sibiu area comes from 1191 when Pope Celestine III confirmed the existence of the free prepositure of the German settlers in Transylvania, the prepositure having its headquarters in Sibiu, named Cibinium at that time. In the 14th century, it was already an important trade center. As of the year 1376, the craftsmen were divided into 19 guilds. Sibiu became the most important ethnic German city among the seven cities that gave Transylvania its German name Siebenbürgen (literally "Seven Citadels"). It was home to the Universitas Saxorum (Community of the Saxons), a network of pedagogues, ministers, intellectuals, city officials, and councilmen of the German community forging an ordered legal corpus and political system in Transylvania since the 1400s. During the 18th and 19th centuries, the city became the second -and then the first most important center of Transylvanian Romanian ethnics. The first Romanian-owned bank had its headquarters here (The Albina Bank), as did the ASTRA (Transylvanian Association for Romanian Literature and Romanian's People Culture). After the Romanian Orthodox Church was granted status in the Habsburg Empire from the 1860s onwards, Sibiu became the Metropolitan seat, and the city is still regarded as the third-most important center of the Romanian Orthodox Church. Between the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and 1867 (the year of the Ausgleich), Sibiu was the meeting-place of the Transylvanian Diet, which had taken its most representative form after the Empire agreed to extend voting rights in the region (Source: Wikipedia).
