This is true! (answer a).

Dowry has been known since the antique, for example in later periods of ancient Greece, in Babylon and in the Roman empire.

Dowry is often connected to the concept of inheritance: since only sons inherited, dowry was a way of making sure that the daughters would also be financially secure.
