Navicular Third cuneiform (occasional) Tuberosity Groove for peroxeus longus A Groove for longus Tuberosity its middle and close to its dorsal border. This is for articulation with the lateral side of the third cuneiform ; proximal and distal to this the surface is rough for ligaments. Not infrequently, proximal to the facet for the third cuneiform, there is a small articular surface for the navicular, as is the case normally in the gorilla, whilst proximally and on the plantar aspect the projecting in- ferior angle is sometimes pro- vided with a facet on which the head of the talus rests. (Sutton, ' Proc. Anat. Soc,' Journ. Anat. and Physiol, vol. xxvi. p. 18.) The distal surface is oval or conical in outline; sloping obliquely from the medial side laterally and backwards, it is divided about its middle by a slight vertical ridge into two parts, the medial of which articulates with the base of the fourth metatarsal bone, the lateral with that of the fifth. The proximal surface, also articular, has a semilunar outline, the convex margin of which corresponds to the dorsal roundness of the bone. The inferior lateral angle corresponds to the tubercle on the lateral border of the bone, whilst the inferior medial angle forms a pointed projection which is sometimes called the calcanean process. This surface articulates with the calcaneus by means of a saddle-shaped facet, which is convex from side to side, and concave from dorsal to plantar margins. The tarsus as a whole may be conveniently described as arranged in two Fig. 269.—The Right Cuboid Bone. A. Lateral Side. B. Medial Side.
