The course consists of topics related to human ontogeny from conception to death. Ontogeny as a process of development, growth, and senescence of an individual is intertwined by many qualitative and quantitative transformations, which affect several anthropologically relevant topics. Such transformations include foundation of sex during early stages of intrauterine development, sexual maturation, development of secondary sexual characteristics, variation in growth and acquisition of final stature and body mass, phenomenon of qualitative and quantitative loss of reproduction in later adulthood and others. The course is not aimed at providing general overview of human ontogeny but rather on providing discussion to anthropologically relevant aspects of ontogeny that lead to the development of individual parameters which themselves can be later estimated, for example, from a human skeleton (sex, age, stature, body mass).
