WHAT DOES SOMATOLOGY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Somatology

Somatology is defined as the study or science of the human body as a branch of anthropology. This also includes the study of material substances, as in physics, chemistry, biology, botany which are under the general heading of physicalism. Somatology is defined in World Book Dictionary as the study, or science, of the human body as a branch of anthropology. It is also defined as the study of material bodies or substances, as in physics, chemistry, biology, botany which are under the general heading of physicalism.. In ancient times, Greek was the lingua franka of much of the Mediterranean. Ancient writers, including St.Paul, said that individual human beings are a complex integration of three components: body, mind and spirit—soma, psyche and pneuma. The term “somatology” comes from Greek roots meaning “body” and “study,” so somatology is the study of the body. This term is used in a number of different ways to describe a variety of activities related to studying the body. Several colleges and universities have departments of somatology which may cover various aspects of this field.
