Why does Deuteronomy 21:13 talk about a woman as if she were a possession?

Why does Deuteronomy say this? 

Deuteronomy 21:13

ESV - 13 And she shall take off the clothes in which she was captured and shall remain in your house and lament her father and her mother a full month. After that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife.
