Of the two bones in the lower human leg, the tibia is the longer and the fibula is narrower. The tibia is the main weight-bearing bone and the fibula allows the rotation of the foot. The tibia is also called the shin bone.
If you are eating a chicken drumstick, the tibia is what you are holding. The fibula is that little splinter of a bone that runs about 2/3 of the way down.
Tibia is Latin for "Flute" because long hollow bird tibias could be carved into flutes...you might be able to make a piccolo out of a chicken tibia.
