The hamate is one of the eight carpal bones in the wrist, playing a crucial role in wrist stability and movement. It helps form the carpal tunnel and supports the structure of the hand, particularly in facilitating the grip and function of the fourth and fifth fingers. Its unique hook-like projection, known as the hamulus, serves as an attachment point for ligaments and tendons, contributing to the hand's overall dexterity.
