Thisc gubernaculum shrinking or contracting, or both, between thefifth and six months of human gestation, draws the testis frombelow the kidney, i, to the abdominal ring, 6, where it rests tothe end of the seventh month. During the eighth month ittraverses the inguinal canal, and by the end of the ninth monthhas reached the scrotum, where it is commonly found at birth,with the remnant of the scrotal part of the gubernaculum,fig. 595, 2. The iliac, 4, and the pubic, 5, portions of the mus-cular tissue have now become the i cremaster: the bag of peri-toneum, 3, 3, carried out with the testis, l, is converted, byobliteration of the neck, into 6 tunica vaginalis testis.
