Maybe I'm misreading something, but it looks like you cited the expected lifespan at birth. To the right, in the paleolithic section, it says:
life expectancy for the 60% reaching age 15 averages 39 remaining years.
So the average expected lifespan of someone who reached 15 years old was 54 years.
- sirtaj 2y agoI'm citing the neolithic data one row below it, since 13,000 years is near the end of the paleolithic era.
- thaumasiotes 2y agoHow does that logic work? Doesn't it imply that you'd prefer the paleolithic row for a date 11,000 years ago? Has anyone revisited the question since 1969?
- sirtaj 2y agoI've no idea, I'm not an anthropologist. Are you? Here's how the logic works: I am stating that a person who clearly has a bone to pick with people who say red meat is bad for you, is misdirecting their ire in a thread about people who ate a lot of red meat 13,000 years ago. If you want to push the expected life expectancy I quoted up by 10-15 years, please do so, I don't mind.
