The rotatores are composcxl of the rolalorcs loiioi and brrcis. They arc small, flat, and ]Kirlly tendinous muscles which lie immediately upon the vertebral arches throughout the entire spinal column, but are chiefly develojied in the thoracic region. The rotatores hrrjcs (Tig. 240) are almost horizontal and ]xiss from the transverse process of one vertebra to the root of the spinous process of the vertebra next above; the rotatores lou^i {Fig. 240) extend over one or sometimes.
