A lot of times corpses of woman have been found buried with weapons and armors. The researchers always determine that these must've been decorative and never could they have been warriors buried with their gear.

It is after all HIStory!

If they couldn't determine whether it was a man or a woman, they used to default to male when they found weapons.
