with the first part. It is inserted into the enlarged base of the fifth 
metatarsal on its peroneal side, and into the fascia passing from that 
bone to the plantar ossicle. 
Tibialis anticus (figs. 18, 19, 20, 23, 24, 25, & 26, T. A). This 
muscle is placed quite on the inner aspect of the leg. It arises from 
the front of the tibia as high up as immediately beneath the origin 
of the extensor longus digitorum—also from the inner border of the 
tibia, from the bottom of the internal lateral ligament down to the 
summit of the inner malleolus, and a little even from the lower part 
of the posterior surface of the tibia, below the bottom of the insertion 
of the popliteus. It is inserted into the tibial side of the distal part 
of the dorsum of the first metatarsal. 
The extensor longus digitorum (figs. 2,17, 18, 19, 25, & 26, #. L) 
is a thick and fleshy mass passing down the middle of the front of 
the leg. It arises by a strong though narrow tendon from the front 
of the femur, just tibiad of the peroneal articular surface—also by 
muscular fibres from the front of the tibia, just peronead of the 
origin of the tibialis anticus. It is inserted into the distal part of 
the dorsum of the third metatarsal.
