Before division into pubic and iliac processes, ischia strongly narrowed. Axes of pubioiliac part and distal shaft positioned at angle of 30°. Ischia forming elongated pubic process and large angular projection located approximately at level of distal part of second quarter of bone length. At level of angular projection apex, these bones very wide, gradually and insignificantly narrowing in distal direction.
