	II. Osteology. 6c. The Bones of the Lower Extremity. 1. The Hip Bone. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body.
		The ischium is the lowest and strongest portion of the bone; it proceeds downward from the acetabulum, expands into a large tuberosity, and then, curving forward, forms, with the pubis, a large aperture, the obturator foramen.
		At birth, the three primary centers are quite separate, the crest, the bottom of the acetabulum, the ischial tuberosity, and the inferior rami of the ischium and pubis being still cartilaginous.
		Below, it is continuous with the pelvic surfaces of the ischium and pubis, only a faint line indicating the place of union.

		In addition, the acetabulum, or hip socket, is not open in typical dinosaur fashion, but is cup-like, being closed off internally by the ischium and ilium; the pubis only contributes to a small portion of the acetabulum.
		Most of the body weight was carried over the hind legs; consequently, the femur is straight and pillar-like, and the tibia and fibula are short and stout.
		The pelvis is unusual among ornithischians because the ilium has expanded horizontally to form a broad, wide surface.

		In the human pelvis there are two large hip bones, each consisting of three fused bones, the illium, ischium, and pubis.
		It receives the weight of the upper body and distributes it to the legs; it also forms the base for numerous muscle attachments.
		The hip bones form a ring around a central cavity.
