Before Fingerprints: How Ear Length Identified Criminals

Even if you’ve never been hauled downtown in a paddy wagon, there’s a chance you’ve had your fingerprints taken. They’ve been used to establish people’s identities for thousands of years, but it wasn’t until the early 20th century that police used them to track criminals. Before that, the Bertillon system was the standard identification method in much of Europe and the U.S. It measured more than a dozen different body parts — including the ears, nose, arms, head circumference, sitting height, and standing height — to identify suspects and criminals. Eye color, scars, and other distinguishing features were noted on a standardized card that also included a mug shot. The system was named for its creator, French anthropologist Alphonse Bertillon, who developed it in 1879.

Why Did Doctors Wear Beak Masks During the Bubonic Plague?

Few images in medical history are as striking (or as creepy) as those of plague doctors with their long, beaked masks. This peculiar costume, worn by physicians during outbreaks of bubonic plague in Europe, has become an enduring symbol of the disease. But why did doctors wear these strange masks, which surely must only have added to the fear felt by people in times of suffering? What purpose did the design serve? Here’s the reasoning behind the mask, which came about in an age when the true nature of disease transmission was still shrouded in mystery. The Origins of the Plague Doctor Costume Contrary to common belief, the plague doctor costume was not a medieval-era invention. Despite its common association with the Black Death — the name given to the bubonic plague pandemic that devastated Europe in the mid-1300s — there is no evidence …Read More
