_The Sacrum_
Aspect normal with the following exception: There are distinct
intervertebral disks between the different segments (5 segments);
there are deep lateral incisures in places where the lateral processes
unite, and the fourth and fifth segments are entirely separated (in one
piece) from the upper three (four small spots of coossification along
the posterior border of the articulation are visible). The articular
processes of the first and second sacral segments are similar in form
to the lumbar, and form open articulations. There is a large foramen
situated below the spinous processes of the first and third segment,
and a smaller beneath the second. Coccyx absent. Curvature medium.

Length second right rib (arc) 21.8
Long diameter second right rib 12.5
Maximum height of the curve 7.2
Length ninth right rib (arc) 28.8
Long diameter ninth right rib 18.7
Maximum height of curve 8.45
_Bones of the Upper Limbs_
