Your idea of early tribal Grimm/Wesen/Humans relationships is interesting, and keeps with the ‘will to survive’ and the ‘strongest survive’ theories. Even if humans and weaker Wesen united, sustained survival against stronger, more violent Wesen would have been difficult. But Grimm joining these tribes would have greatly enhanced their odds of sustained survival.
If they established tribes consisting of likeminded Humans, Wesen and Grimm, something disrupted that camaraderie and eventually led to Grimm becoming combative against all Wesen and Wesen distrusting/fearing/hating all Grimm, and Humans’ awareness of Grimm and Wesen was eventually lost to the general population and only remained with elite groups/organizations such as a select few high ranking government and military personnel.
That disruption could have been caused by earlier elite groups rising above the general population, and Grimm unwittingly helping these elite groups unite small tribes to create a larger population and region for each newly formed monarch to reign over. This could explain the creation of seven Royal families and why Grimm were once employed by or pledged their service to them. The show provided background of Grimm being employed by/in service of the seven Royal families as early as the twelfth century, but didn’t contradict that it occurred much earlier. And using your theory that Humans and weaker Wesen may have accepted Grimm as religious leaders because of their strengths and insights, explains why they didn’t initially resist the Royal families reigning over them and Grimm policing them.
