Dynamical evolution of asteroids in a simulation with chaotic Jupiter and Saturn and comparison with real asteroids with diameter larger than 50 km. The period ratio between Jupiter and Saturn is about 1.66 (one of the resonant angles associated with the 7:4 resonance librate and circulate, showing that the planets are near the resonance separatrix but episodes of libration in the 3:2 resonance are also observed).
