Dataset. https://doi.org/10.17862/cranfield.rd.13516532https://dspace.lib.cranfield.ac.uk/handle/1826/22209This study used autopsy material from 113 rib specimens. A set of 33 parameters were measured by standard bio-mechanical (nanoindentation and microindentation), physical (TGA/DSC, XRD and FTIR) and histomorphometry (porosity-ImageJ) methods. Stepwise regressions were used to create 35 equations that would produce the best ‘estimates of age at death’ vs real age of the cadavers. Five equations were produced; in the best of cases an equation counting 7 parameters had an R2 = 0.863 and mean absolute error of 4.64 years.CC BY 4.0'Forensic Anthropology''Age estimation''Bone matrix''Nanoidentation''Biochemistry''Human Rib''Forensic Biology'Dataset10.17862/cranfield.rd.13516532
