Re: Mixed wrestling in ancient times
On the question of whether the video of the Indian woman beating the bigger guy in wrestling was real: The impression I got was it was neither a real fight nor a thrown one, but a demonstration. Maybe I would have gotten a different impression if I understood the language.
At any rate, wrestling matches of this sort between males and females in India are apparently real. Here are some examples from youtube. I don't know how common they are. I wonder if anybody else here knows anything about them. In most, but not all, of the matches I've seen, the woman seems to have a weight advantage.

Sheehan, there is also the Greek mythological legend of Atalanta who was a famous hunter and wrestler and defeated many men, including Peleus.

Re: Mixed wrestling in ancient times
I first read about Atalanta in a book on Greek mythology. I think the author was Edith Hamilton. I haven't found much anywhere else.
