This is not to say there were not 'wars' between tribes or communities, but any community that preyed on members of another community would soon find itself the subject of retributive action. Neighbouring communities, for the most part, appear to have maintained fairly peaceful relations, including trade relations -- primarily, because the trade was beneficial to both groups.
