In the course of develop- ment the intervertebral discs differentiate into a peripheral inter- vertebral ligament and a central suspensory ligament which at first contains remains of the notochord. There is a synovial cavity between the intervertebral and suspensory ligaments. This dif- ferentiation takes place by a process of loosening and resorption.

The in- tervertebral ligament takes the form of paired, fibrous menisci, or, in other words, the intervertebral ligaments are incomplete around the bodies of the vertebrae dorsally and ventrally (Schwarck). Ossification is well advanced in the clavicles, long bones,.
