The input of the data from Naha and Tomari caused a fall in the life expectancy average (males 43.9→41.8, females 44.7→44.5), especially in the male one. People from the Naha and Tomari lineages were of lower nobility than the ones of the Shuri lineages and it seems it influenced life expectancy. Female life expectancy isn't changed much though so it might be due to male activities rather than general health conditions in the social class.

The oldest male recorded dies at 94 y.o. and the oldest female at 99 y.o. I reported different (higher) numbers earlier but crossing references, it appears it was a clerk's mistake. well, 94 and 99 are still quite high numbers for Early Modern populations in my opinion. Of course there is the bias that the genealogical records were only established for nobility so those people probably had a higher life expectancy than the commoners.

I finished retooting all the tweets I had posted about my Ryukyu People Database in the past years. I recently finished the input of the data from the Naha/Tomari families (there are 3 groups: Shuri, Naha/Tomari and Kume), so time for a small summary !
There are 8296 people in the database, but only 2172 males and 1578 females the age at death of which is known. Based on this data, life expectancy at birth is of 41.8 years for males and 44.5 years for females.

輩氏 安里家 三世 宮平筑登之 「因鍛治業削名乘」!!Why Ryukyuan People? 鍛治業ってそんなに悪い職業ですか?弟二三人尓也してもぜんぜん記録消されていないけど!尓也より鍛治屋儲かるのに?父は仁也で筑登之まで登ったのに?Why? 宮平筑登之、家族が反対でも夢を追って鍛治屋になってえらい!340年後尊敬するよ!
Hai Clan, Asato Family, 3rd Generation, Miyahira Chikudun "Name erased because he's a blacksmith" !! Why ? Is being a blacksmith such a shameful occupation ? He's got two or three younger brothers who are peasants and they absolutely not have been erased from the records !

家譜で「病気で死んだよ」と書かれている人たちは非常に少ないですね~別に海で死んでいないけど若く死んだ男性と結婚していないけど若く死んだ女性を数えることができるけど、みんな感染症かどうかわかりませんね。こっちはデータベースが終わったらいろいろ見えることが出来ると思います。
There are very little cases where it is specified "this person died of illness". you could count the males who die young even if they do not go abroad (not a death at sea then), and the unmarried females who die young (not a death in childbirth) but we can't know if they really died of illness.
#Ryukyu #RyukyuGenealogies
Male children are mostly adopted when adult when it's quite clear there won't be any male heir, and some are even adopted post-mortem (death of the parent, not the child, of course...), while female children are adopted when babies.

ところで、一ページ目で「尚巴志の長男の子孫だよ~」って普通に書かれている。秘密バレバレだな~
By the way, on the first page it is written "they're the descendants of the eldest son of Shō Hashi", what a well-guarded secret...

There's a woman who inherited the household even though there was a man still alive to inherit (her father's younger brother)(In 1666 Takushi Aji Maushigani inherits of the Kyan Dunchi Household because her older brother dies young.She then divorces her husband and dies without an heir,which is why her father's younger brother finally inherits) #Ryukyu #RyukyuGenealogies
