Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: anthropo- comb. form, -metry comb. form.

Etymology: < anthropo- comb. form + -metry comb. form, ultimately after post-classical Latin anthropometria (1654 in the title of a work by J. S. Elsholtz). Compare French anthropométrie (1659 or earlier).

The measurement of the human body in order to determine its average dimensions and proportions, at different ages and in different populations.Formerly chiefly with reference to racial differences and eugenics, or subsequently the identification of criminals (cf. bertillonage n.). In recent use chiefly with reference to design and ergonomics.
