Somatoscopy And Anthropometry Techniques Importance For Forensic Sciences

Summary/Abstract: Somatology, which is one of the lower branches of Anthropology, is a science that directly tastes humanity bioculturally. Somatology uses somatoscopy and anthropometry techniques while morphologically examining a human. Somatoscopy tries to investigate body qualities such as lip shape, skin color, which are not numerically measured. Anthropometry, on the other hand, identifies body characteristics that can be described numerically, such as height, height, and height of the bust. Although the use of these techniques in research has gone up to the 16th century, it has been widely used for various sciences and industrial branches since the second half of the 20th century. Somatoscopy and anthropometry techniques provide the most important information in the design of all kinds of tools, tools, machinery, structures, equipment and living spaces, determination of sporadic performance and athlete performance, determination of population health of human health, One of the many uses of somatoscopy and anthropometry techniques is the Forensic Science. These two Anthropological techniques are sufficiently utilized in the identification of the victim or the criminal in the Forensic Science. During the identification of the victim's identity, if the victim's body is still new, somatoscopic qualities can be determined from skin color, nose-like shape and structure to fingerprints. With the anthropometry technique, numerical measures such as height, bust height, finger length and weight can be determined. If only the bones and teeth of the victim are left, the anthropometric measurements can be used to identify them. In this literature study, somatoscopy and anthropometry techniques will be briefly explained, and then the science and industry branches benefiting from these techniques will be transferred after mentioning the application forms of the techniques. Finally, the use of somatoscopy and anthropometry techniques in forensic sciences and the importance of these techniques for forensic sciences will be discussed.
