"You have died of Dysentery [on the Korean Peninsula in 3064 BCE at 2 months old]"
I was actually a bit surprised since it also said I was exclusively breastfed which seems to be fairly protective against diarrhea. I have a feeling this didn't account for all the joint probability distributions...
All babies were exclusively breastfed in 3064 BCE.
Yeah, it doesn't give totally absurd combinations (like a male dying of birth complications at age 10), but the probabilities are still likely rather rough approximations (eg. sorting cause-of-death distributions to a few bins like "infant", "child", "adult", "elder").
Strangely, I too, died in the Korean Peninsula at 8 months old, but circa 6000 BCE.
Hmm, I was at the Korean Penisula too. How representatively random is this thing?
I died at age 36 of a workplace accident in the Yangtze delta in the year 700
I died of malaria at age 1 in the West African Sahel!
I died at 1 in Mesopotamia in 3966 BCE of dysentery.
