It serves for the attach- ment of the strong interosseous ligament which unites the talus with the calcaneus, and separates the facet already described from a smaller oval articular area having a slightly convex surface, which lies immediately in front of it. This is caUed the middle calcanean facet (facies articularis calcanea media), and articulates with.
