In human populations, generation time typically has ranged from 20 to 30 years, with wide variation based on gender and society. [1] [2] Historians sometimes use this to date events, by converting generations into years to obtain rough estimates of time.
In order to readily have the generation stated for a certain person, the Ahnentafel numbering may be preceded by the generation. This method's usefulness becomes apparent when applied further back in the generations: e.g. 08-146, is a male preceding the subject by 7 (8-1) generations.
