In ancient times there were games played using astragali, or Talus bone.

It is responsible for transmitting the majority of the body's weight from the talus bone to the ground.

The talus bone of the ankle joint connects the leg to the foot.

The talus bone lacks a good blood supply.

The game is played in a field where the taba or talus bone is thrown to the air.

In 2002 Accola suffered a serious ankle injury, breaking both of his talus bones.

The three aforementioned parts of bone articulate with the talus bone of the foot.

The talus bone supports the leg bones (tibia and fibula), forming the ankle.

For descriptive purposes the talus bone is divided into three sections, neck, body and head of talus.

The body of the talus comprises most of the volume of the talus bone.

The 'hindfoot' is composed of the Talus bone or heel bone and the calcaneus or ankle bone.

Astragalectomy, sometimes called a talectomy is a surgical operation for removal of the talus bone (astragalus) for stabilization of the ankle.

It passes from the anterior margin of the fibular malleolus, anteriorly and medially, to the talus bone, in front of its lateral articular facet.

The talus bone (Latin for ankle), astragalus or ankle bone is a bone in the collection of bones in the foot called the tarsus.

The calcaneus, also known as the heel bone, is the largest of the tarsal bones and articulates with the cuboid bone anteriorly and the talus bone superiorly.

Hearst ran into complications following surgery as circulatory problems choked off the blood supply in the area, leading to Avascular Necrosis, causing the talus bone in his foot to die.

In order to achieve correction of the clubfoot, the calcaneum should be allowed to rotate freely under the talus bone, which also is free to rotate in the ankle mortise.

Fractures of the talus bone are rare in other sports but account for 2% of snowboard injuries - a lateral process talus fracture is sometimes called "snowboarder's ankle" by medical staff.

Shewfelt's long-held goal of Olympic gold was endangered when he severely bruised the talus bone in his ankle in March 2004, but he made a full recovery in time for Athens.

The neck of talus is a talus bone of the human foot directed forward and medialward, and comprises the constricted portion of the bone between the body and the oval head.

The two most common types are the calcaneonavicular coalition where there is a failure of separation between the calcaneus and the navicular bones and the talocalcaneal coalition between the calcaneus and the talus bones.

The talus bone or ankle bone is connected superiorly to the two bones of the lower leg, the tibia and fibula, to form the ankle joint or talocrural joint; inferiorly, at the subtalar joint, to the calcaneus or heel bone.

The calcaneal (Achilles) tendon is inserted into a roughened area on its superior side, the cuboid bone articulates with its anterior side, and on its superior side are three articular surfaces for the articulation with the talus bone.

The ankles of Australovenator and Fukuiraptor are similar to the Australian talus bone known as NMVP 150070 that had previously been identified as belonging to Allosaurus sp., and it is likely that this bone represents Australovenator or a close relative of it.

Strepsirrhines also possess distinctive features in their tarsus (ankle bones) that differentiate them from haplorhines, such as a sloping talo-fibular facet (the face where the talus bone and fibula meet) and a difference in the location of the position of the flexor fibularis tendon on the talus.
