Antropoloogiale is a term that appears to function as an adjectival form related to anthropology. In standard English scholarly language, the corresponding adjective is anthropological. The form “antropoloogiale” is not widely attested in English-language sources and may reflect a spelling variant from another language or a misspelling.

Etymology and linguistic context suggest that the term derives from the same root as anthropology, from the Greek anthropos meaning human and logia meaning study.
