Is there a way to figure out the exact age of a person with dna or blood or any type of body samples?

Question

what is it?

Answer 1

I don't know if so exactly age can be figured out from human body samples but of course it is possibleby DNA testing from body samples. The age evidence from them are either "so closest" or "approximated".

Let's have some evidences, for example you can often watch the reseach works performed by british and international archeologist in Egypt ( SHOWN in DISCOVERY CHANNEL on TV) where age has been trased out for many burried and later exhumated pharaones. The researcher were able to figure out the age of the ruler. So, I guess it is possible.

Recently in China a research was carried out to confirm if the local residents are originated from romans. Read this link and then an article by LONDON HERALD  here. They must have figured out the age of exhumated roman soldiers......
