ANCIENT HISTORY OF FINGERPRINTING
2000 BC Fingerprints were used for business
transactions in Babylon.
221-206 BC
China had records about using hand prints as evidence during
investigation.
221 BC- 220 AD
Fingerprints were used on clay seals to “sign” documents.
14th Century
Official government documents contained fingerprint impressions.

NEHEMIAH GREW/ MARCELLO MALPIGHI
English botanist, physician and microscopist
1684: Published Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London vol. 14, pp. 566-567 (1684).
First person to study and describe ridges, furrows, and pores on hand and foot surfaces.
Italian physiologist
1687: Published Concerning the External Tactile Organs
Noted that ridged skin increases friction between an object and the skin’s surface which enhances traction for walking and grasping
friction ridge skin observations

ANDREAS MAYER
1788 – German anatomist Johann Christoph Andreas Mayer is the first to write that friction ridge skin is unique.
Book: Anatomical Copper-plates with Appropriate Explanations,
Mayer wrote, “Although the arrangement of skin ridges is never duplicated in two persons, nevertheless the similarities are closer among some individuals. In others the differences are marked, yet in spite of their peculiarities of arrangement all have a certain likeness”

JOHANNES E. PURKINJE 1823
Evangelist published article on nine fingerprint patterns 1832
Did not receive credit due to not applying his method to anything useful (although others did piggy-back on his ideas)
Was known mostly for studying cells

WILLIAM HERSCHEL 1858
After Indian Mutiny of 1858, became member of Indian Civil Service

HENRY FAULDS (1880)
British surgeon and Superintendent of Tsukiji Hospital in Tokyo.
Wrote an article that discussed fingerprints as a means of identification.
Began to study “skin-furrows”.
Developed a classification system for recording impressions.
He is credited with the first fingerprint identification.

ALPHONSE BERTILLION
Alphonse Bertillon, a Clerk in the Prefecture of Police of at Paris, France
System of classification: Anthropometry- First method of classification also known as the Bertillon System
This method laid ground work for acceptance of fingerprints as scientific method.

FINGERPRINTS IN POP CULTURE
Mark Twain’s Life of the Mississippi 1883 used fingerprint ID to catch the antagonist.
Alfred Hitchcock used fingerprints in M is for Murder by having one character trick another into leaving a visible print on a letter
Adventure of the Norwood Builder, a Sherlock Holmes novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle used fingerprints as a significant clue at a turning point in the novel. Ballistics and tool marks were also brought to the public in his series

EDMOND LOCARD
Developed the science of poroscopy, the study of fingerprint pores and the impressions produced by these pores.
Established the first rules of the minimum number of minutiae necessary for identification
He said that if 12 specific points were identical between two fingerprints, it would be sufficient for positive identification.

Noted fingerprint individuality
Remain unchanged except for scars
Patterns and details are unique; ridge patterns vary within

AUTOMATED FINGERPRINT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM (AFIS)

Database search for 10 pt. set of prints
1963 Special Agent Carl Voelker: FBI’s fingerprint identification process.
1975-1976: System called Finder was delivered to the FBI.
