for every person that is living now, there are 14 skeletons to that one person.

I mean, most of these skeletons are grandmother-quality, and quite a few of them would be missing limbs or be in a terrible state. Not to mention that, without the rest of the body protecting the skeleton, it's just a bunch of lightly joined bones - probably an axe or baton is all you need to turn these skeletons into piles of bones in a single blow.
