-
One of the small bones of the ear, so called from its fancied resemblance to a smith's anvil. It is situate in the cavity of the tympanum, between the malleus and orbiculare. Its body is articulated with the malleus; its horizontal ramus, which is the shortest, corresponds with the entrance of the mastoid cells; and its vertical ramus is articulated with the os orbiculare. The incus is composed of a compact tissue, and is developed from a single point of ossification.
