Definition
A muscle or anatomical structure connecting the head to the humerus (upper arm bone), particularly in comparative anatomy.
Etymology
From Greek kephalē (head) + Latin humeralis (of the humerus or shoulder). This Latin-form name appears in anatomical texts describing muscles in humans and animals, following classical anatomical nomenclature traditions.
Kelly Says
In evolutionary studies, anatomists use names like cephalohumeralis to track how muscles evolved from fish to reptiles to mammals—the same muscle got repurposed and repositioned millions of years ago, but its name reminds us of its ancient origin.
