Ritual warfare was (and obviously still is) common around the world.
Although serious wounds and death were possible, the affairs accomplished many of the same things actual warfare did without the carnage.
I love the mutual fairs, sort of like beer parties after rugby games.

The WWII German Junkers Ju 87 dive bomber had propeller driven sirens ("Jericho Trumpets") that accomplished the same inducement of fear on the bombee.
