Assessing the age of menarche was challenging due to the paucity of female adolescents, but based on the available evidence, it appears to have occurred between 16 and 17 years of age. For some, full adulthood had been achieved by 17–22 years, similar to the patterns seen in modern wealthy countries and in advance of historic populations living in urbanized environments.'</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/adolescence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>adolescence</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/lifehistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lifehistory</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/humanevolution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>humanevolution</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/anthropology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>anthropology</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/archaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>archaeology</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/burials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>burials</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S004724842400085X?dgcid=raven_sd_via_email" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">sciencedirect.com/science/arti</span><span class="invisible">cle/pii/S004724842400085X?dgcid=raven_sd_via_email</span></a></p>
