“…Nutrient foramina were described by Leeuwenhoek in 1674 (Brookes, 1971) and by Havers (1691), whereas Haller recognised in 1752 that there might be more than one diaphysial artery (Brookes, 1971). The vascular content of Haversian canals was established by Albinus (1754) and Hunter believed their blood came from the periosteum with contributions from the medullary vessels.…”

“…The vascular content of Haversian canals was established by Albinus (1754) and Hunter believed their blood came from the periosteum with contributions from the medullary vessels. The blood supply of bone is complex and many of its subtleties may still not be fully worked out (Brookes, 1971). Hunter was unable to dissect nerves in bone and thought it was largely insensitive.…”

“…Regarding ossification, the extremities of long bones have been called epiphyses since Galenic times (Dalechamps, 1573) but the term 'diaphysis' was coined by Heister (1732) 9 (Brookes, 1971). That a long bone grows toward its ends, rather than in its shaft, was recognised by Hales (1727) 10 and Duhamel (Sissons, 1956) but Hunter stated that John Hunter's view (at this time) was that growth was similar throughout a bone (MS Gen 790).…”

This article examines William Hunter's specimens on bone in the Anatomy Museum at the University of Glasgow. By referring to students' notes taken at Hunter's lectures and to the Manuscript Catalogue of his anatomical specimens, we attempt to answer the question, ''What did William Hunter know about bone?'' Hunter seems to have been particularly interested in the relationship between vascularisation and ossification and many of the specimens illustrate this. He provided his students with reasoned arguments on a number of issues: that the marrow serves as a fat store and not to produce synovial fluid or to keep bones supple; the periosteum serves as an attachment for tendons and ligaments; the rationale for the presence of epiphyses is not readily defined; that bones form by intramembranous and endochondral ossification and that, in the latter, cartilage is replaced by bone. William Hunter narrowly failed to realise that in long bones new bone is laid down by the periosteum and at the epiphysial plates, and is remodeled. These discoveries were to be made by his brother, John. Clin. Anat. 18:155-163, 2005. ' 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Parts of the articular surfaces of the 152 joints available in the study were often protected by dried articular tissue. The 18–25 year group were categorized as normal. Using hand‐lens and dissecting microscope, probable nutritional canals were found in normal articular surfaces, together with hemispherical configurations that may relate to attachment of the fibres of fibro‐cartilage. At about 35 years, changes were detected: areas of increase of canals, confluence of canals, disorder in arrangement of hemispherical configurations and, probably at a more advanced stage of change, irregularities in their shapes: jaggedness, flattening and finally absence so leaving a smooth surface. A new type of perforation appeared; some pouting with sloping sides like volcanoes were regarded as perforations of the subchondral plate by the destructive vascular tissue of osteoarthrosis which, together with changes in surface configurations, probably begin during the stages of initial change in cartilage that morbid anatomists categorize as Grades 1 and 2 in their Collins 4‐Grade system. Hence a parallel five‐grade system suitable for use on skeletal material was constructed with the addition of an intermediate Grade 3A to provide for detailed characterization of the bony changes the palaeopathologist depends on. Probably the facets, even when eroded, were covered with an articular tissue. Measurement, expressed as a size index, and the development of overlapping margins to acromial facets, often overhanging the subacromial surface, suggested that the facets increased in size before any osteoarthrosis occurred.
