That sounds like an overestimate. As far as I've seen, the Indo-European expansion was just the first of the steppe hordes -- weren't they the first to domesticate the horse?
Also, isn't it possible that women could have evolved to like both the kidnapper and the guy who can protect her from the kidnapper?
What I have in mind is more like Thucydides' chilling explanation how the early Ancient Greeks simply did not understand the term peace, engaging in constant piracy against each others ships and villages, and peace was invented as side-effect of military alliane against a third polis. Was the whole world as bad as that?
