Acetabulum

A deep fossa formed by the fusion of 3 hip bone parts. Articulates with the head of the femur, forming the coxal joint.

Medial Malleous

A medial projection on the distal end of the tibia that articulates with talus bone of the ankle.`

Intercondylar eminence of the tibia

A slight upward projection between the medial and lateral condyles
