age of consent was lower until the past couple 100s of years, it was not uncommon to be married at 13-16 a long time ago as people were unlikely to live till 40 or even 30, but different times have different values
The labeling of "pedophilia" to teenagers is a recent thing. Pedophilia means child, not post puberty (biological child bearing age). We have come to believe that sexual relationships between adults and teenagers is harmful psychologically and we have implemented laws to prevent that potential damage. This really isn't the same as pedophilia at all though, and I wish people would separate the two, even if they are both currently somewhat related crimes.
It's important because I think pedophilia (the real thing) is used to damage the adult, as well as the child. I think it is used as a form of control. It seems to be like a disease that can be transferred. The pure predatory nature of real pedophilia seems to cause a psychotic break in the Satanic initiate. I think it is a gateway to the more horrific acts, like murder and cannibalism.
@OP I think this ritualistic (Satanic) version of pedophilia indoctrination has been going on for millennia. Da Vinci was almost certainly one of them, given what we know now on how they work and who they choose.
Juliet was 13. The Virgin Mary was married to Joseph at 14. Generally adulthood corresponded to puberty, and is still so in many places. Now we seem to be looking for a magic age in years.

age of consent for a man to have s*x with a boy? hmmmmm that's odd
