Digastric muscle side; anterior belly may be absent and posterior belly inserted into the middle of the jaw or hyoid bone. The tendon may pass in front, more rarely behind the Stylohoideus. The Mentohyoideus muscle passes from the body of hyoid bone to chin. The Digastricus divides the anterior triangle of the neck into three smaller triangles.

If the hyoid is being held in place (by the infrahyoid muscles), it will tend to
Tibialis anterior muscle base of the first metatarsal bone. Deep peroneal (fibular) nerve, branch of common peroneal (fibular) nerve (L4, L5, S1). A deep portion of the muscle is rarely inserted into the talus, or a tendinous slip may pass to the head of the first metatarsal bone or the base of the first phalanx of the great toe. The tibiofascialis anterior, a small muscle from the lower part of the tibia to the transverse or cruciate crural ligaments or deep fascia.
