The secular variation of biological anthropology was proposed to assess the degree of socio-economic development of a country or region, providing important information for public health policies orientation [1]. This gives us an insight regarding how hard nations try to achieve better secular trends of growth.

Nevertheless, taller height has been often described as a sign of social status and privilege [3], therefore it became a personal as well as a society wish.
