There is a big difference between "primitive civilizations" and hunter gatherer tribes. People often forget that the Aztecs were an agricultural civilization.

There is a big difference between "primitive civilizations" and hunter gatherer tribes.
People often forget that the Aztecs were an agricultural civilization. So were most Native Americans like Pocahontas -- yes, Pocahontas' dad was a farmer. Shocking, I know.
The comparison is between different forms of past societies, not between past societies and today.
Until very recently, plenty of men in agricultural societies died from violence and war.
