lateral cuneiform bone

It is on the outer side of the foot and is next to the calcaneus, navicular and lateral cuneiform bones.

The Interosseous intercuneiform ligaments are short fibrous bands that connect the adjacent surfaces of the medial and intermediate, and the intermediate and lateral cuneiform bones.

The bones of the tarsus are the rear most bones in the adjacent diagram: calcaneus, talus, navicular, cuboid, medial cuneiform, intermediate cuneiform and lateral cuneiform bones.

The 'Adductor hallucis muscle' has two heads; a stronger oblique head which arises from the cuboid and lateral cuneiform bones and the bases of the second and third metatarsals; and a transverse head which arises from the distal ends of the third-fifth metatarsals.

While the flexor hallucis brevis arises, by a pointed tendinous process, from the medial part of the under surface of the cuboid bone, from the contiguous portion of the lateral cuneiform bone, and from the prolongation of the tendon of the tibialis posterior.
