Notes: For length maximum, apply stem of sliding compass to 

 lowest (most prominent) parts of the medial surface on the bone.' 



The maximum breadth is taken by applying the fixed branch of the 

 sliding compass to the lowest (most prominent) parts on the medial 

 surface of the bone. 



The maximum height of the astragalus is best taken on the osteo- 

 metric plane, on which the bone is placed so that all the three lowest 

 points of its inferior surface touch the vertical part, while the block is 

 applied to the most prominent part of the bone from the opposite 

 direction. 



A comparative study of the calcaneus facets on the talus with the 

 corresponding facets on the latter bone, is of considerable interest, and 

 shows some racial variations.
