    The author applies a covariant Hamiltonian approach to dynamics of compact spinning bodies. First of all, he derives the spinning particle dynamics using a covariant Hamiltonian phase-space formulation. Before finally describing the constants of motion, he derives the same equations from the Einstein ones for spinning point particle with an appropriate choice of energy-momentum tensor.
