Pattern matching of age-at-death distributions in paleodemographic analysis
Model age-at-death distributions are generated from fertility and mortality rates derived from two present-day, traditional human societies with widely differing cultural systems: the !Kung hunters-and-gatherers and Yanomamo horticulturalists. Visual examination of these models demonstrates that fertility has more of an effect than mortality on the overall configuration of the age-at-death distributions of stable populations. Comparisons with a l…
