Trivia

The Talus, derived from the Latin term for ankle or ankle bone, is part of the collection of bones in the foot referred to as the Tarsus. The Tarsus constitutes the lower section of the ankle joint. It is responsible for transferring the full weight of the body from the lower legs to the foot.<ref>Wikipedia: Talus bone</ref>
