In ancient times, the looting of enemy towns by victorious armies was quite common. When the soldiers enter the town and begin their looting, how do they behave to eachother? I mean, would they attack their fellow soldiers to snatch the loot from them? I could imagine that happening out of greed. So how agressive were looting soldiers to eachother?
Just to piggyback a little. I've read that officers and generals of an army would get a portion of their soldier's loot. Is this true, and do we knwo how that would be organized?
