Age ‐at‐death estimation in archaeological samples: Differences in population means resulting from different aging methods can be predicted from the mean ages of method‐specific reference samples

ConclusionsSince large differences in mean age between reference samples used to develop different age-estimation methods are common, some care is needed in interpreting differences between individual age estimates or population mean age estimates in cases where different age-estimation techniques are used.
