The collection contains stature-related and other anthropometric data of 7686 skeletal individuals (including aggregated information for several individuals) from the prehistory of Southwest Asia and Europe. While the focus period of our collection is the Holocene ca. 10 000 to 1000 BC, the data collection also includes older specimens of anatomically modern humans (dating as early as 110 k BP in the case of Qafzeh). The upper date range in some cases extends to around 100 AD, although the great majority of datasets date no later than 600 BC. Correctness and completeness were pursued for all information relevant to stature, i.e. basic information such as sex (after Sjøvold 1988) and age (after Szilvássy 1988) as well as the long bone measurements, whereas other measurements were merely inherited from the two integrated older data bases and not explicitly checked. All measurements conform to the definitions given by Martin 1928. To grasp common publication practice in the literature, not only left and right body side, but also mean values from both sides as well as measurements with unknown siding have their own separate fields for the stature-related long bone measurements.

Bildarchiv Foto Marburg is Germany's documentation center for art history. Its mission is to collect, index and make available photographs related to European art and architecture, as well as to conduct research on the history, practice and theory of how visual cultural assets are passed on, especially the accompanying transformation process as it relates to the media, the conditions of storing knowledge in visual form, and the significance to society of remembering visual culture. The inventory of Bildarchiv Foto Marburg, the greater part of which is digitally processed, and the inventories of further cultural organizations can be viewed on the internet from the image database: Image Index of Art and Architecture: https://www.bildindex.de/
