Is there a single term for the date range of someone’s life as it would be used in biographical information about the person, e.g. 1929-2001, 1984-, c. 1500-1593?

I’m looking for something a little more terse than “birth and death dates” wink

TIA

According to the Tibetan Book of the Dead, it’s a bardo.
