There were always a few women warriors in wars. Often disguised as men or boys. Sometimes though, just being a 'camp follower' was a terribly dangerous life.

Set against the men they accompanied, many of those women may have been the weaker sex - but I'd pit pretty much most of them against any average man of today in terms of physical strength and toughness.
