Why is Nedarim in Nashim?

Simple question surprised not asked yet, but why is tractate Nedarim in order Nashim? I am not presuming it has anywhere better to be, but I don't see how it directly connects with Nashim more than other orders.

  • Thanks but this answer would probably go better on a question "why is the seder called Nashim"? In theory, it does answer my question in passing, by saying Nashim is a bad name, and if we had the right name, we'd see how it fits so +1 Commented yesterday

  • Kinyanim is bava batra, only part of one chapter of kiddushin has that as a tangent. I think the underlying principle is man-made non-temple/priest hekdesh Commented yesterday
