Anthropometric history is the study of the history of human height and weight.[1][2] The concept was formulated in 1989 although it has historical roots.[3] In the 1830s, Adolphe Quetelet and Louis R. Villermé studied the physical stature of populations.[4][5] In the 1960s, French historians analyzed the relationship between socio-economic variables and human height.[6] Anthropometric history was established as field of study in the late 1970s when economic historians Robert Fogel, John Komlos,[7][8] Richard Steckel and other academics began to study the history of human physical stature and its relationship to economic development.[9] A branch of cliometrics, it uses trends and cross-sectional patterns in human physical stature to understand historical processes.[10][11]
