What age are non Aes-Sedai Chanellers?

What is the lifespan of unbound female channelers? If it is 600 - 800 years is it possibe that there are some Wise Ones / Damane that are only fourth or fifth generation removed from the breaking?

In one of the female Forsaken POV's one of them speculates that at 400 she was just hitting middle age. I think it's Mesanna I'm not sure.

If this is so, surely the Aiel at least should have a much better record / skill base left over form the AOL.

They weren't hit as badly by the Trolloc wars, and they were uneffected by the war of 100 years. How did the Aiel revert to the low tech level warrior society they live now?


Except you can't really view it that way since we have humans who live to 110-115, yet a generation is 30 years or so.

Also given the fact that muggle parents can have Aes Sedai children, the generational number is still probably around that number. Sorelia ( sorry I can't seem to spell that correct from memory ) also refers to her what seems like 7th generation grandson, so even those who live long view it as such.

You'd have to have a long line of a family giving birth at the latest possible time, 500 maybe?, and for that to continue for seven generations. Doesn't seem possible.
