The uncertain death. Estimating mortality structure by random sampling

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 35, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract Imprecise data produced by commonly applied osteological age‐at‐death estimations profoundly affect all research on age‐dependent mortality in past societies. With uncertain death estimation (UCD), we propose a novel approach to estimating the mortality structure from imprecise data and present a corresponding R package for simple application.
