Did the strongest tribesman not beat the shit out of all the other tribesmen, take their stuff, and bang their women?

Not if they wanted loyal tribesmen companions. And not if they wanted to avoid being killed in their sleep.

Then what's stopping post-agricultural people from being disloyal to the rich and killing them in their sleep? What makes you think the same tactics could not be used by pre-agriculture tribal chiefs to ensure loyalty among the tribesmen they abused?

Damn dude, who beat the shit out of you, took all your stuff and banged "your" women?
