Bones of the Pelvis.—The bones of the Pelvis are the two Innominata or nameless bones, and the Sacrum and Coccyx, which have already been described. (Fig. 78.) Fig. 18. 188. The InnomiMtam, Ilium, Ischium, Tubes.—Each Innominatum presents the largest surface of any bone in the body. They are irregularly flat bones and situated just beneath the abdomen, to the organs of which they give firm support by their broadly-expanded surface. In young skele- tons they are divided into three portions, and hence they are described in the adult as made up of three parts, although no line of division can actually be seen. The Ilium constitutes the broadly-expanded portion usually known as the hip or haunch. The Ischium, from the Greek signifying to ' hold' or u retain,' is the heavy portion projecting downwards, and that point on which the body rests, when in a sitting posture. 1ST. IIow many bones in the Pelvis, find what are their names? 133. Describe the Innominatum. Into how many parts are they divided in young animals? Describe the Ilium and the Ischium.
