Human longevity has evolved remarkably. Early humans faced short life expectancies due to hazards and predation. Agriculture marked progress, enabling stable food sources and population growth. Some ancient individuals lived into their 60s and 70s. The Middle Ages brought challenges like famine and disease, reducing life expectancies. Science and medicine advances during the Renaissance and Enlightenment improved longevity. The Industrial Revolution enhanced living conditions, nutrition, and healthcare access. The 20th century saw significant life expectancy gains due to medical progress and healthier lifestyles. Today, global life expectancy rises, with disparities tied to socioeconomic factors and healthcare access. Ongoing research offers hope for extending lifespan.
