Abstract
The important French anatomist Jean Riolan Jr. specifies in his work Anthropographia comprehensively for the first time in the history of anatomy several conditions which anatomy adepts should fulfill during their preparation. Good anatomists should be prepared for their work physically, mentally, culturally and ethically. The teacher of anatomy should abide by three rules: have experience in anatomical dissection, possess the proper skills and correct approach to dissection, and use an appropriate teaching method.
