    Science sais they left because they wanted to avoid inbreeding or was looking for a mate. I say, it's becaused the males wouldn't pick up there laundry and kept leaving the rock seat up.

    I dont think they left voluntarily, I think a more likely scenario is one where the rival tribe stole the women. More women means more children, more children increases the numbers of your tribe while the other goes stagnant.
