Structure. Histologically, tendons consist of dense regular connective tissue fascicles encased in dense irregular connective tissue sheaths. Normal healthy tendons are composed mostly of parallel arrays of collagen fibers closely packed together. They are anchored to bone by Sharpey's fibres.
The cord-like structure of the tendon is not the only conformation a tendon can take. The muscles of the skull are held together by tendons with the same basic building blocks (collagen), but they take a different shape. Go ahead and feel your head until you locate a dense tendon cord like the Achilles.
