 Back in time; a long muse - Terry
I think the maths at the start of the thread is somewhat flawed - unless reproduction habitually takes place shortly before death at a biblical three score years and 10.

More likely, to go back 3500 years, assuming each generation reproduces at average 20 year intervals is 175 folk at the party.

Just to reinforce the point - even by 1800 AD life expectancy in the UK was around 40, not 70.
