Cesare Lombroso is frequently acknowledged at the father of criminology.
Lombroso insisted that all criminals were "born" criminal or atavistic, a reversion to an earlier evolutionary level; that is, the characteristics of primative human beings periodically reappeared in certain individuals.
He identified these characteristics as:
enormous jaws
high cheek bones
prominent superciliary arches
solitary lines in the palms
extreme size of the orbits
handle-shaped or sensile ears
insensibility to pain
extreme acute sight
tattooing
excessive idleness
love of orgies
and
the irresistable craving for evil for its own sake
