Capitate bone

In the human hand, the capitate bone is the largest of the carpal bones, and occupies the center of the wrist. It presents, above, a rounded portion or head, which is received into the concavity formed by the scaphoid and lunate bones; a constricted portion or neck; and below this, the body. [1] The bone is also found in many other mammals, and is homologous with the "third distal carpal" of reptiles and amphibians.

The etymology derives from the Latin capitātus, "having a head," from capit-, meaning "head."
