Violence over mates (change?)
Males fighting each other over females are well-documented and observed in many species of animals including humans. Studies of mass graves of skeletons have found that men from prehistoric neighboring tribes fought and murdered each other to secure women. Herodotus stated that women kidnappings were a common cause of war as evidenced by the events surrounding The Abduction of The Sabine Women, and the Trojan War. Tacitus reported that Ancient Germanic women would accompany their men into battle to offer encouragement through loud screams and shrieks. The men were highly motivated to fight to protect their women because they feared losing them to captivity of the enemy. There is a growing consensus that Vikings may have originally started sailing and raiding due to a need to seek out women from foreign lands. The Chivalry code of conduct emphasized gallantry and respect towards women by knights which included protection from combative hostile parties.
