Aponeuroses are flattened or ribbon-shaped tendons, of a pearly white color, iridescent, glistening, and similar in structure to the tendons.
The tendons and aponeuroses are connected, on the one hand, with the muscles, and, on the other hand, with the movable structures, as the bones, cartilages ligaments, and fibrous membranes (for instance, the sclera).
Where the muscular fibers are in a direct line with those of the tendon or aponeurosis, the two are directly continuous.

  plantar fasciitis
Aponeuroses are structurally similar to tendons and ligaments."
It says some anatomists define only the central band as the plantar aponeurosis, but that the medial and lateral bands' of the fascia are also aponeurotic (thicker and denser) as they get closer to the heel bone.
This shows that "plantar fascia" and "plantar fasciitis" are incorrect and that the correct term for plantar fasciitis is actually "plantar aponeurositis," which, to my knowledge, is never used.
