Somatotyping is an effective technique for study of anthropometric variations in any population. The present study was conducted on a sample of 300 healthy urban women of age 50-80 years, subdivided into six age groups.Somatotypes were computed according to the equation given by Carter (1980). The resultsshow a dominance ofendomorphic component over the other two somatotype components, having maximum endomorphic values for the women in the age group of 56-60 years (8.23). Minimum and maximum ectomorphic values were observed at the age group of 50-55 years (0.62) and 71-75 years (1.73) respectively.Minimum mesomorphic values are at the age group of 71-75 years i.e. 3.09. A maximum mesomorphic value is observed at the age group of 56-60 years (4.71). Maximum scattering of individual somatotype was found in 56-60 years of age group as indicated by maximum values of SDM and SAM.
