The exterior of the horse . A B D Fig. 67. elongated eminence, the termination of the tendon of the anterior extensor of themetacarpus. Two curved lines circumscribe it on the sides : the internal, verymarked, commences at the tuberosity of the radius ; the external begins almoston the same level, but makes a less salient angle ; both teaminate quite abruptlyat the canon below the head of the rudimentary metacarpal bones. Examined in profile from the external side (Fig. 67, B), its anterior line,almost straight, continues that of the forearm ; two eminences, scarcely marked,modify it slightly

Examined in profile from the external side (Fig. 67, B), its anterior line,almost straight, continues that of the forearm ; two eminences, scarcely marked,modify it slightly and indicate the relief of the two rows of carpal bones. Itsposterior line, on the contrary, presents a very pronounced angle, formed by tliesupra-carpal bone, below, which it curves obliquely forward upon the these two lines there are two prominences which indicate the externaltuberosity of the radius, above, and the head of the corresponding splint bone,below.
