Description

The coccyx (Latin: os coccygis), commonly referred to as the tailbone, is the final segment of the human vertebral column, of three to five (usually four) fused vertebrae (the coccygeal vertebrae), below the sacrum. It is attached to the sacrum in a fibrocartilaginous joint, which permits limited movement between them. The term coccyx comes originally from the Greek language and means, shaped like a cuckoo's beak. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
