Aging is based upon a good correlation between biological features (cranial sutures, pubic symphysis, humeral and femoral heads, osteons) and age. However it is not possible to estimate the structure of deaths of skeletal population if the correlation coefficient ( r or multiple- R ) between biologicla characteristics and age is lower than 0·9.

Controversy on paleodemography
International Journal of Anthropology, 1990Recent discussion expressed in scientific literature proves that these exist some reservations about the role of paleo-demographic investigation in general Phrehistoric research. This concerns mostly the congitive value of the results gained in paleodemography. This misunderstanding should be cleared up.

“Welcome back paleodemography”
2021Jean-Pierre Bocquet-Appel is one of the founding fathers of paleodemography in France. With Claude Masset, he developed new techniques for estimating the age at death of skeletons and promoted the implementation of estimators in paleodemography. Since the 1990s, he has participated in the emergence of spatial demography, dedicating himself in recent ...

Deconstructing death in paleodemography
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2002AbstractIn 1992 in this Journal (Konigsberg and Frankenberg [1992] Am. J. Phys. Anthropol.89:235–256), we wrote about the use of maximum likelihood methods for the “estimation of age structure in anthropological demography.” More specifically, we presented a particular method (the “iterated age‐length key”) from the fisheries literature and suggested ...

Paleodemography: Expectancy and false hope
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1996From parent populations (N = 50,000) stochastically generated, representing different levels of correlation (r) between the age at death and a hypothetical biological indicator (r = 0.8-0.98), reference samples and target demographic samples are randomly drawn.

AbstractAccurate identification of every skeleton (age, sex, health, female fecundity) in a fully sampled cemetery provides data on adult longevity, infant and child death ratios, sex ratio, fertility and birth, death, and natural increase rates, population density, family structure and microevolutionary selection.

AbstractData on porotic hyperostosis (usually from thalassemia or sicklemia) and on morphology as related to differential survival and fertility in Early Neolithic Nea Nikomedeia (N over 90) and Middle Bronze Age Lerna (N = 234) show (a) the importance of disease, mainly falciparum malaria, in determining fertility, (b) the irregular fit between ...
