Edmund Locard expanded on Gross' work with Locard's Exchange Principle which stated "whenever two objects come into contact with one another, materials are exchanged between them". This means that every contact by a criminal leaves a trace. Locard was also known as the "Sherlock Holmes of France". Alexander Lacassagne, who taught Locard, produced autopsy standards on actual forensic cases. Alphonse Bertillon was a French criminologist and founder of Anthropometry (scientific study of measurements and proportions of the human body). He used anthropometry for identification, saying each individual title: Forensic science text: and witness testimony. However, ancient sources do contain several accounts of techniques that foreshadow concepts in forensic science that were developed centuries later. The first written account of using medicine and entomology to solve criminal cases is attributed to the book of "Xi Yuan Lu" (translated as "Washing Away of Wrongs"), written in China by Song Ci (宋慈, 1186–1249) in 1248, who was a director of justice, jail and supervision, during the Song dynasty. Song Ci ruled regulation about autopsy report for court, how to protect the evidence in the examining process, the reason why workers must show examination to title: Anthropometry text: to optimize products. Changes in lifestyles, nutrition, and ethnic composition of populations lead to changes in the distribution of body dimensions (e.g. the rise in obesity) and require regular updating of anthropometric data collections. The history of anthropometry includes and spans various concepts, both scientific and pseudoscientific, such as craniometry, paleoanthropology, biological anthropology, phrenology, physiognomy, forensics, criminology, phylogeography, human origins, and cranio-facial description, as well as correlations between various anthropometrics and personal identity, mental typology, personality, cranial vault and brain size, and other factors. At various times in history, applications of anthropometry have ranged vastly—from accurate scientific description and epidemiological title: History of anthropometry text: History of anthropometry The history of anthropometry includes the use of anthropometry as an early tool of physical anthropology, use for identification, use for the purposes of understanding human physical variation, in paleoanthropology, and in various attempts to correlate physical with racial and psychological traits. At various points in history, certain anthropometrics have been cited by advocates of discrimination and eugenics, often as part of novel social movements or based upon pseudoscientific claims. In 1716 Louis-Jean-Marie Daubenton, who wrote many essays on comparative anatomy for the Académie française, published his "Memoir on the Different Positions of the Occipital Foramen in title: Zakaria Erzinçlioğlu text: programmes on forensic science, including "The Witness was a Fly" on the BBC. He was awarded the John Grundy Medal for medical entomology by the Royal Army Medical College. Erzinçlioğlu married Sharon Wynne Davies in 1984. He had one son and two daughters. He died on 26 September 2002 of a heart attack in England. Zakaria Erzinçlioğlu Zakaria Erzinçlioğlu (1951–2002), also known as Dr Zak, was a renowned forensic entomologist. He used his expertise in insect biology in criminal investigations and solved more than 200 murders, earning him an international reputation. Erzinçlioglu was born on 30 December 1951 in Hungary
