The sex distribution among adults was approximately equal.

Adult males at Windover had an average stature estimated at about 5 feet 9 inches — 175 centimeters — which is robust for any prehistoric population and suggests a nutritionally adequate diet.

Adult females averaged approximately 5 feet 5 inches, or about 165 centimeters.

These were physically capable people, their skeletons showing the muscular development consistent with the physically demanding lives of hunter-gatherers who moved through the landscape on foot, carrying their possessions and tools, processing food by hand and with stone implements.

The age distribution across the full cemetery — from newborns to individuals in their sixties — has particular significance for what it suggests about the community that used the pond as a burial site.
