MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 6 days ago24, that is quite a historical extreme, isn’t it?
In the wild, average live span was around 40 to 50 years. There’s even studies about the evolutional reasons why we live longer than other primates/why we are the only hominide with grandparents.

Sure, it is an extreme. As in my edit I stated: this is due to sanitation. It is all over the board throughout the 15th-18th century world because pandemics/diseases/epidemics came and went and sanitation was so low and medicine was so bad that people dropped like flies, and thus did the life expentency average.
