The paper is devoted to such morphological quantities of the human body as (1) geometric, i.e., linear, planar, and spatial;(2) inertial, especially - mass, density, radius of center of mass, moment of inertia and its radius. Description of quantities was given, material used (live subjects, cadavers, models), and methods utilized: mechanical and electromechanical, optical, geometric (for inertia quantities), penetrating, calculation, modelling. The most important results were given, especially for inertial quantities.
