Describe the dorsal ligaments.—They are transverse ligaments, con-necting the bases of these bones, on the back of the hands. What is the situation of the palmar ligaments ?—They connect thebases of the metacarpal bones in the palm. What are the ligaments of the heads of the metacarpal bones ? —The capsular, lateral, and transverse. What are the ligaments of the joints of the fingers ? — There are ateach joint capsular and lateral ligaments. LIGAMENTS OF THE LOWER EXTREMITY. What are the ligaments connecting the os innominatum and thefemur ? (Figs. 47,48.)—There are three, namely : a capsular, a roundligament or ligamentum teres, and cotyloid. Fig. 47. Fig. What is the situation of the capsular ligament ?—It arises from themargin of the acetabulum, and is inserted around the root of the neckof the femur. A small fasciculus of fibres, called ileo-femoral,^ strength-ens the capsule. Describe the round ligament.—-It arises from the small depression7* 78 ANATOMY, in the head of the femur, and is inserted into the middle of the ace-tabulum.^ Describe the cotyloid ligament.^—It tips the acetabulum, increasingits depth, and is fibro-cartilaginous in structure. What are the ligaments which connect the femur with the tibia andfibula ? — The capsular, popliteal, internal lateral, external lateral, an-terior crucial, and posterior crucial. Describe the capsular ligament. — It passes from the edges of theart
