The iliacus muscle is attached to the surface lateral to the ilio-pectineal line. The anterior border or crest (Crista iliaca) is concave, thick, -and rough. The medial border (Margo medialis) is deeply concave. Its middle part forms the greater sciatic notch (Incisura ischiadica major) and it is continuous behind with the ischiatic spine. The lateral border (Margo lateralis) is concave and in great part rough. Its anterior part is crossed by grooves for the ilio-lumbar vessels, which are continued Sacral spines Tuber sacralc Cresl of ilium , Apex of sacrum.

The nutrient foramen is usually situated on or near" the posterior part of this border. The medial angle is termed the tuber sacrale; it curves upward and a little backward opposite to the first sacral spine, and forms here the highest point of the skeleton. It is somewhat thickened and rough. The lateral angle, tuber coxae, forms the basis of the point of the hip. It is a large quadrangular mass, narrow in its middle, and enlarged at either end, where it bears a pair of tuberos
