∙ 15y agoThe foot is made up of seven Tarsal bones, five Metatarsal bones, and fourteen Phalanges. Talus Also known as the 'ankle-bone', the Talus articulates with the Tibia (above), Fibula (side), and Calcaneus (below) Navicular The Navicular is boat-shaped, and can be found between the three Cuneiforms and the Talus. Intermediate Cuneiform The middle of the three Cuneiform bones, the Intermediate Cuneiform articulates with the second Metatarsal and the Navicular. Medial Cuneiform The Medial Cuneiform is found on the 'big-toe' side of the foot, and articulates with the first Metatarsal and the Navicular. Distal Phalange The Distal Phalange is found at the end of each toe. Middle Phalange The Middle Phalange can be found just below the Distal Phalange. Each toe has one except the Hallux (big-toe) which only has a distal and proximal. Proximal Phalange This bone articulates with the Middle Phalange (Distal in the Hallux) and the Metatarsal. It can be found at the start of our toe. Metatarsal There are five Metatarsals in each foot, which are collectively known as the Metatarsus. They are number 1 to 5, starting from the the 'big-toe' side of the foot. It is the head of the first Metatarsal that forms the 'ball' of the foot. Lateral Cuneiform The Lateral Cuneiform articulates with the second Metatarsal and the Navicular. Cuboid The Cuboid articulates with the Calcaneus, the Navicular, and the fourth and fifth Metatarsals Calcaneus Also known as Calcaneum or the 'heel-bone', the Calcaneus articulates with the Talus and Cuboid. It is at the back of the Calcaneus that the Achilles Tendon attaches.
