The Forgotten History of Same-Sex Marriage

So, I'm currently gathering online resources to re-educate my mother and rid her of the more than slightly ridiculously ignorant belief she recently expressed ("assaulted me with," I'm tempted to phrase it) that same-sex marriage is not legal anywhere and never has been. So far, I've found four good websites on same-sex marriage currently, worldwide (plus extra details/documentation on that), historically, in nonwestern cultures, and historically, in premodern western cultures. But I know there's a lot more out there, some of which is much better than what I've got here, so I was hoping some of you could offer suggestions. I'd particularly like to collect as much information as possible on same-sex marriages in long-ago and faraway cultures, because that's what I'm finding it hardest to locate online.
