Age Senile

*Cenectus. According to the norms of the Latin language, this word corresponds to the homonyms senex and senilis - respectively, “old man” and “senile”. The word was used by many poets of Ancient Rome until the end of the 1st century AD. This is how people over 65 years of age were designated in the Roman Republic. That is, upon reaching this age, a citizen lost a number of his political rights and freedoms: elections were abolished, rights to obtain government positions were reduced, and so on. These were already completely elderly people.*

Over the past two thousand years, the relevance of the concept has not changed. **Old age** is always closely related to a person’s health and how old he really is.
