* In Sir Gawain and the Green Knight Gawain returns from his battle with the Green Knight wearing the green girdle " obliquely, like a baldric, bound at his side ,/ below his left shoulder, laced in a knot, in betokening the blame he had borne for his fault.

Successful vaults depend on the speed of the run, the length of the hurdle, the power the gymnast generates from the legs and shoulder girdle, the kinesthetic awareness in the air, and the speed of rotation in the case of more difficult and complex vaults.

He designed Hermes ' winged helmet and sandals, the Aegis breastplate, Aphrodite's famed girdle, Agamemnon's staff of office, Achilles ' armor, Heracles ' bronze clappers, Helios ' chariot ( and one for himself, to be used on account of his lameness ), the shoulder of Pelops, and Eros ' bow and arrows.

P. occidentalis mount wherein arms, shoulder girdle, and fingers are actual bones, and the rest has been drawn from other specimens.

It is mostly protected and supported by the ribcage, spine, and shoulder girdle.

The choir and outdoor dress of the friars is a tunic of black woolen material, with long, wide sleeves, a black leather girdle and a large shoulder cape to which is attached a long, pointed hood reaching to the girdle.

It makes up part of the shoulder and the pectoral girdle and is palpable in all people, and, in people who have less fat in this region, the location of the bone is clearly visible as it creates a bulge in the skin.

The scapula forms the posterior ( back ) located part of the shoulder girdle.

The axillary nerve is located at the proximal end, against the shoulder girdle.

Successful vaults depend on the speed of the run, the length of the hurdle, the power the gymnast generates from the legs and shoulder girdle, the kinesthetic awareness in the air, and the speed of rotation in the case of more difficult and complex vaults.

* Operculum ( small bone in the skull, linked to shoulder girdle by the opercularis muscle ; perhaps involved in hearing and balance ; absent in caecilians and some salamanders, fused to the stapes ( ear bones ) in most anurans )

Ichthyostegas skull seems more fish-like than that of Acanthostega, but its girdle ( shoulder and hip ) morphology seems stronger and better adapted to land-life.

Most notably, the shoulder girdle was disconnected from the skull, resulting in improved terrestrial locomotion.

Moderate and severe cases can present with pelvic and shoulder girdle muscle weakness.

Rhythmic Stabilisation: and Alternating Isometrics are very similar in that they both encourage stability of the trunk, hip, and shoulder girdle.

The original fossil remains of Supersaurus, discovered in the Dry Mesa Quarry, yielded only a few bones: the shoulder girdle ( type specimen BYU 12962, earlier BYU 5500 ), an ischium ( BYU 12946 ) and a few neck vertebrae.

This shoulder girdle ( or scapulocoracoid ) stood some 2. 4 meters ( 8 ft ) tall, if placed on end.

Other bones that were found at the same location and originally thought to belong to Ultrasauros, like a shoulder girdle ( scapulocoracoid, BYU 9462 ), actually belonged to Brachiosaurus, possibly a large specimen of Brachiosaurus altithorax.

While a grouping by innervation reveals embryological and phylogenetic origins, the functional-topographical classification below reflects the similarity in action between muscles ( with the exception of the shoulder girdle, where muscles with similar action can vary considerably in their location and orientation.

The shoulder girdle or pectoral girdle, composed of the clavicle and the scapula, connects the upper limb to the axial skeleton through the sternoclavicular joint ( the only joint in the upper limb that directly articulates with the trunk ), a ball and socket joint supported by the subclavius muscle which acts as a dynamic ligament.

Between them these two joints allow a wide range of movements for the shoulder girdle, much because of the lack of a bone-to-bone contact between the scapula and the thoracic cage.

The mobility of the shoulder girdle is supported by a large number of muscles.
