實物特徵:In the Classical World, it is very difficult to establish a dividing line between suicide and kairothanasia, considered by someone as the opportune death. Although there is a long list of suicides, especially political ones, most of the cases accepted so far as suicides among the elderly could be considered to be the practice of kairothanasia.
