17 The Backbone of History: Health and Nutrition in the Western Hemisphere, Richard H. Steckel and Dr. Jerome C. Rose (Cambridge University Press, 2002). “The researchers attributed the widespread decline in health in large part to the rise of agriculture and urban living.” “The more mobile, less densely settled populations were usually the healthiest pre-Columbians.” “Even so, in the simplest hunter-gatherer societies, few people survived past age 50. In the healthiest cultures in the 1,000 years before Columbus, a life span of no more than 35 years might be usual.”
