(a) Marrying within your own clan was not advisable as it was considered incest, your clans women being your ‘sisters’.
(b) Capturing women from from other clans/tribes meant these women were your sole possessions. No other man could claim them as his. This was hence an easy way of increasing a man’s prestige through his possessions.
(Pardon me I couldn’t resist giving the sociological lecture. Sometimes, I have just no doubt that I should become a Professor.)
