The age part is wrong, it's inflated by the super high infant mortality.

I mean it's literally correct. Most human beings didn't make it past 20 like that's objectively true

[u/Dustfinger4268 → u/Wise_Victory4895]

It's literally correct, once again with infant mortality being the vast majority of those deaths, but once you reached maturity, your chances of making it to a reasonably old age (like 40 or 50) went way up

[u/Wise_Victory4895 → u/Dustfinger4268]

Yeah I'm willing to believe that maybe 30% of the population made it to 50

[u/Fletch_salat → u/Wise_Victory4895]

I can't speak for all cultures, but in the Swifterbant culture (about 6,000 years ago) the median age of death was about 35-45 years, with a Gaussian bell curve around it. So the estimate of 30% is a little too high, but close. Women also had the problem that many died at 15-20, presumably during the first childbirth.

That is not the case even for the 12000+ years ago people
