During the Mongol Era, there were series of events that took place where women were portrayed as valuable objects. In the film Genghis Khan, Börte was kidnapped by Temüjin and rapped by Djamuqa. She was treated like an object, like other women during the Mongolian era. In another scene from the movie, Temüjin’s army entered the China wall, where the emperor bestowed upon them lovely woman who would be their acquaintance while they bathed. The women were there to please the men during their stay by giving them their bodies as a reward for helping one of the emperor’s royal men. These are only a couple of examples found from the film Genghis Khan, of how women were treated as objects of entertainment. Marco Polo one of the most recognized explorers in the world, was a witness to how women were treated as materials. When Marco Polo traveled to the East to meet the great emperor Kublai Khan he saw what the locals of the Mongol empire thought about woman.
