σφηνῳδής

Why does it have the word "sphenoid" in Greek letters (σφηνῳδής)? Is this the correct Classic Greek term for the scaphoid bone? Or a blunder when something like σκαφοειδές is meant? Pliny (talk) 11:14, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think that there is a mistake. The right name for this bone in ancient Greek is σκαφοειδές. I'm correcting it. Pompilos (talk) 15:01, 18 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
