The iliac furrow, also known as a Aphrodite's Saddle, Hercules' Girdles, athlete's girdle, Apollo's Belt or an Adonis belt, is a term for a part of the human anatomy. It refers to either one of two shallow grooves of the surface anatomy of the human abdomen running from the iliac crest (hip bone) to the pubis. The term "iliac furrow" does not appear in any of the abstracts indexed by PubMed.〔(No items found - PubMed Results )〕 It is not a currently defined term in ''Terminologia Anatomica'', though it has been used as a formal anatomical term in the past. In modern usage, it is more common to discuss the surface anatomy in terms of nearby structures such as the inguinal ligament or iliac crest. The term "iliac furrow" still often encountered when reading about art history,〔http://vanth.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/vaseindex?lookup=Boston+01.8020〕〔(Polykleitos, the Doryphoros, and Tradition. - book reviews | Art Bulletin, The | Find Articles at BNET.com )〕 and the term "Apollo's belt" is often used by bodybuilders and their admirers. The expression "Adonis belt" is also encountered, though less common, from the sense of ''Adonis'' as any handsome young man (cf. the myth of Adonis). ==See also== *Adonis *Apollo 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Apollo's belt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
