The term aorta has an uncertain derivation with Hippocrates being the first one recorded to mention the word around the 5th century BC. Hippocrates used the word (which may have come from combination of Greek 'aer' which means air and 'tepeo' which means to hold) to describe the trachea and its branches in consideration of the windpipe's function. The word biceps comes from the Latin words 'bis' meaning twice and caput which means head. Its brachii is basically a muscle with two heads or origins.
Another word derived from Latin is coronary from the word 'corona' meaning garland, wealth, crown or boundary. Arranged vertically instead of encircling the cranium, the coronal suture is reminiscent of the style favored by Roman emperors for the wearing of a garland. The Greek word for almond, almygdala, is a mass of gray matter positioned within the temporal lobe of the cerebrum. It is known as almygdala because it has the shape and approximate size of an almond kernel (Dr. C, 2008). The above named human body parts are examples of the origins of anatomical names.
Muscles are named depending on their sizes, the direction of their fibers run, their bodily location, the bones they attach to, how they look like, where they are in relation to certain bones and their functions within the body. In most cases, muscle names contain combinations of each of the above. Without the consideration of these things, naming of muscles would be a daunting task because there are over six hundred muscles in the human body and identifying each of them is not an easy task. Early anatomists looked at the above mentioned things while naming the muscles for instance, muscles...
Origin of Anatomically Modern Humans The curiosity to study origin and birth of human beings has shaped a holistic subject, paleoanthropology, which mainly focuses on the origin of modern human beings or Homo sapiens (Matthew and Nitecki, 1994).For about 30,000 years, the Earth has been inhabited by humans that carry anatomical and behavioral uniformity.

Many inquiries were made into the universe, from how it worked to its creation, as well as the construction of a workable calendar and an understanding of numerous illnesses. These collective areas of discussion fall under the term of natural philosophy, or philosophy of nature.

(Hobdell; Fordham, 1998) Freud also contributed to sociology and closely linked the works with psychoanalysis. The consideration that Freud's work is about individuals has alienated sociologists from considering the work as a sociological Inquiry. While the psychoanalysis was progressing and gaining ground in Europe and America, Sociologists were being influenced by the theories that related to socialization.
