Abstract
⺠The study analyzes the trend in height among women born in the US in the 19th century who applied for a passport. ⺠Unlike men from the average population, this group did not experience a decline in physical stature in the antebellum period. ⺠This divergence corroborates the relevance of economic factors for the “antebellum puzzle”.
