    I’m sure a human 85,00 years ago said, I’m so glad I live in modern times and not my ancestors 85,000 years ago. One day, 85,000 years from now, someone will say they were glad they didn’t live in such barbaric times like today.

    Are you going to leave that misleading thumbnail up? Life expectancy wasn't 13. But yes mathematically speaking with infant mortality you can come up with some math equation that says 13 but once someone is an adult no, they would live as long as us if they didn't get killed or diseased

      He talked about Homo Habilis during the entire vid. Tough to imagine a lifespan of fifty, sixty or so years for Homo habilis. "Homo habilis was a species of human that lived in sub-Saharan Africa from about 2.4 to 1.5 million years ago. They first appeared in the fossil record around 2.3 million years ago and eventually evolved into Homo erectus."

    • @jim6038
      @jim6038 20 дней назад +8

      Life expectancy is the average of lifespans. Many many will die young, either disease, misadventure or being eaten. Some will live to perhaps 30 or 40 before being killed by their teeth ( infection of gums, blood or heart), or in combat, hunt or misadventure.
      It is appropriate to estimate 13 for a lifespan if the average age at death was 13.

      @stan1027 18 дней назад +1

      @@jim6038 I'm no mathematician, but it seems to me that if the "average" age of death was 13, that would mean there were as many who lived to be about 26, give or take a few years, as there were who died in early childhood. Given my own limited ability to think of such things, it's actually hard for me to imagine how such a scenario could have been. But anything is possible, and truth is often stranger than fiction.

    • @Shaylok
      @Shaylok 17 дней назад +1

      They should give us the broader picture, letting us know what percentage likely died in infancy and then the lifespan of those that survived their childhood. That would give us a much better idea of what life was like.

    • @InsaneCuriosity

      Frequent mating and early reproductive age were likely survival strategies for species during that era. These behaviors helped ensure enough offspring survived the harsh conditions. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

    You guys are very confuse between infantile mortality and average lifespan, you cannot estimate the average lifespan of a population by including child mortality, if the child mortality was high because of hygiene bad condition, when reaching adulthood people were living over 50 or 60, then saying that Greek average lifespan was 25 is a complete misrepresentation of the Greek population living at this time. And same thing for néolithique period were you imagine walking around a population of teenagers, let be serious
    Statistic can make you say what ever you want and also its exact opposite

    Lets see, lets take a person who dies 69 years old, 3 infants that die by the age of 1, one baby that dies at the age of 7 and one 14.
    So, we have 69 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 7 + 14 = 93.
    So lets divide 93 by 7 and we get 13.
    Infant death rate was very high and children desth rate was high, teenagers death rate was also high but once you were grown up you could live up to 60 or more fairly easy.

    Being a scavenger as a human-relying on foraging for discarded or decaying resources, including animal carcasses-can be highly dangerous due to several health, environmental, and social risks. Here’s a breakdown:
    1. Health Risks
    • Infections and Diseases:
    • Exposure to decaying organic matter can lead to bacterial infections like salmonella, E. coli, or botulism.
    • Contact with carcasses may result in zoonotic diseases (diseases that transfer from animals to humans), such as anthrax or rabies.
    • Parasitic infections (e.g., tapeworms) from consuming contaminated food are also a significant risk.
    • Food Poisoning:
    • Scavenging meat or spoiled food often carries a high risk of contamination. Without proper preservation or cooking, foodborne illnesses can occur.
    • Chemical Exposure:
    • Industrial waste, pesticides, or other toxins might contaminate scavenged items.

    Most species have few members reaching breeding age, this includes early humans. The young are the most susceptible to predation. Because of this average lifespan is meaningless. With an average lifespan of 13 for every member who died before 13 one lived longer. The maximum lifespan was not that different than today. Many founding fathers lived into their 70s or 80s.
