Like bone, the cement consists of matrix and of lacwKS, butrarely contains Haversian canals and vessels. Besides these,peculiar canals analogous to those of the dentine are found, andother more abnormal cavities. The matrix is sometimes granular, sometimes transverselystriated, sometimes amorphous, and frequently laminated Fig. ih. , Jw ^ />. // like bone. The lacunce resemble in all essential charactersthose of the bones, so that any detailed description may bedispensed with. They are distinguished only by the greatvariety which they present in number, form, and size (0-005—0-02, even to 0-03), and the unusual number and length(as much as 0-03) of their canaliculi. The majority are oval. Fig. 192.

Those are most remarkable which have avery elongated form, together with a narrow, canal-like cavity(fig. 185), inasmuch as their resemblance to the dentinal canalsis unraistakeable.
