When did age of consent begin? The Holy Bible provides none, and european families were marrying girls to family members as young as they were born (and arranging them even earlier) if games like europa universalis and crusader kings are anything to go by.
For most of european history pedophilia wasn't a major deal, nor was incest, or bestiality, or any other sexual perversions, even homophilia was alright.
Females of any age were considered the property of males:
First of them being their fathers or another male family member who inherited them from their father.
If and when they got married they became the property of their husbands, who took ownership of her by marrying her.
In the husband's absence the male who inherits the property of the husband also takes ownership of her.
Women and girls were pretty much chattel slaves to men and (in some cases) boys, they were lacking any rights of their own.
So if she was raped it was not a personal crime committed against her, but instead a property crime committed against whoever owned her,.
Furthermore, her consent was never a legal consideration, the criminal could be charged for his sexual conduct with her even if the sex was entirely consensual between the two participants.
The "I consent x2 / I don't" meme was a reality under historical european law.
