ÉTUDE ANTHROPOLOGIQUE COMPARATIVE ET DIACHRONIQUE DES CERTAINS ÉTUDIANTS ROUMAINS DE L'ENSEIGNEMENT UNIVERSITAIRE DE BUCAREST.

Diacronic and comparative anthropological study of some Romanian students from Bucharest universities. In the present paper we compare mean dimensional and conformational values which characterize four series of students from Bucharest universities (Medicine, Technology, Ecology) studied by Professor Francisc Rainer (1929), Th. Enăchescu and Suzana Grinţescu-Pop (1972, 1974) and Eleonora Luca (1996-1998). By comparison with national mean values from the Anthropological Atlas of Romania (Radu, Glavce, Ştirbu, 2011:52), analyze of the results shows higher dimensions for cephalic callote, height and sitting height from the series of 1972 and 1974. The students of Ecological University are closer mostly to the national mean values, excepting the height, significantly higher and also the highest in the series succession. Compared with the mean values of the students of 1929, a progressive and significant increase of height throughout eight decades is observed for the next series and a diminution trend of cephalic indices and cormic index for ecologist students.
