roove,and serves for the attachment of the tendon of the Pectoralis major. About itscentre is seen the rough deltoid impression; below, it is smooth and rounded,affording attachment to the Brachialis anticus. j The external border runs from the back part of the greater tuberosity tothe external condyle, and separates the external from the posterior surface. It isrounded and indistinctly marked in its upper half, serving for the attachment ofthe external head of the Triceps muscle; its centre is traversed by a broad butshallow oblique depression, the musculo-spiral groove; its lower part is markedby a prominent rough margin, a little curved from behind forwards, which presents I an anterior lip for the attachment of the Supinator longus above, the Extensorcarpi radialis longior below, a posterior lip for the Triceps, and an interstice forthe attachment of the external intermuscular aponeurosis. The internal border extends from the lesser tuberosity to the internal condyle. H OSTEOLOGY.

HUMERUS. 99 Its upper third is marked by a prominent ridge, forming the inner lip of thebicipital groove, and gives attachment from above downwards to the tendons ofthe Latissimus dorsi. Teres major, and part of the origin of the inner head of theTriceps. About its centre is a rough ridge for the attachment of the Coraco-brachialis, and just below this is seen the entrance of the nutritious canal directeddownwards. Sometimes there is a second canal higher up, which takes a similardirection. Its inferior third is raised into a slight ridge, which becomes very-prominent below; it presents an anterior lip for the attachment of the Brachialisanticus, a posterior lip for the internal head of the Triceps, and an intermediatespace for the internal intermuscular aponeurosis. The external surface is directed outwards above, where it is smooth, rounded,and covered by the Deltoid muscle; forwards below, where it is slightly concavefrom above downwards, and gives origin to part of the Brachialis
