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.

Demography, Including Paleodemography
, 2023 Demography is the study of a group's age and sex structure. This chapter focuses on the life table and its continuous form, known as a hazard or survivorship model. For an extant group it may be possible to obtain information on ages-at-death, although generally it is more common to have census information on the living.

Paleodemography: From archaeology and skeletal age estimation to life in the past [PDF]
American Journal of Biological Anthropology, 2022 Much of paleodemography, an interdisciplinary field with strong ties to archaeology, among other disciplines, is oriented toward clarifying the life experiences of past people and why they changed over time.

Paleodemography: “Not quite dead”
Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, 1994 AbstractAs Kim Hill1recently noted inEvolutionary Anthropology, humans are unique among the hominoids with regard to the length of their lives, as well as other elements in the individual life histories. The evolutionary details that modified a basic pongid life history into a hominid one remain obscure, but aspects of recent human demographic history ...
