The arches of the foot are maintained by the shapes of the bones as well as by ligaments and tendons. The foot has three arches; Medial Longitudinal Arch is the highest and most important of the three arches. It is composed of the calcaneus, talus, navicular bone, cuneiforms, and the first three metatarsals. Lateral Longitudinal Arch is lower and flatter than the medial arch.
