Interesting premise. So it takes place in the 1700s or something like that?
Predator 1 and 2 are still the only ones worth watching though. I just can't believe a primitive young woman withtomahawks and bows is capable of defeating a spaceship-piloting alien with lasers and cloaking. Sorry I'm just not progressive enough for that nonsense.

It's an allegory, just like the old Aliens movies were for males about pregnancy and corporate indifference.
Predator has always had an anti-imperialism thread throughout it as a franchise. A foe with more advanced technology takes on a primitive, comparatively underpowered human, whether it's 1984 in the jungle or 1650 in the plains.
Ahnold used a tree and some physical power, good writing can come up with a way for a small woman to defeat a critter
Not that I'm expecting good writing from modern movies, but sometimes they still crank em out
