I think more like:

Juvenile 15-20
Very young 20-25
Young 25-30
Middle aged 30-40
Aged 40-50
Old 50-60
Veneralbe 60-70

People in those times didn't live up to 120. They even rarely crossed the border of 50. But this is the king, so...

:lol: :rofl: people in those times hardly reached 60, so middle aged at 60looks very funny to me.

Even today, would you call somebody who's 60 as middle-aged?

sorry, but this cannot be said generally.

i.e. Eleanor of Aquitaine, mother of english kings Richard I. the Lionhearted and John I. lived in 12th century and lived over 80 years, but this was absolutely not ordinary life duration in 12th century. Of course, few people lived so long, but would you say that in general people in Caucasus countries live around 110? I wouldn't

In general it was in M.A. up to 50-60, in ancient Greece and Rome 55-70. Average number is, of course, strongly influenced by very high rate of children died in 0 to 5 years of age. It's known that who survived until his 20 had very big chance to live for another 30yrs, to 50, women with over 5 children lived longer....
