Robust inference of historical human generation times

2023-07-23

Abstract excerpt

Ragsdale and Thornton (2023) raise concerns about our recent estimates of historical human generation times, concluding that our results were “predominantly driven by nonbiological artifacts.” While we believe these authors have pointed out several important sources of uncertainty, we show here that their main concerns are either not relevant to our study or support our conclusions as much as they cast doubt on th...
