The Miles system of ageing, based upon analysis of the rate of molar wear, was evaluated using the available dental sample from Tepe Hissar, Iran. The independently estimated ages for the mandibles and maxillae of the same individuals were found to be highly correlated (r=0.87, p Due to selective retention of burial remains, the available skeletal sample from Tepe Hissar I‐III is not representative of the human populations of the site and can not be used to generate meaningful demographic statistics
