The 3 bones in your ear are the smallest -
malleus, incus, and stapes are the Latin names,
commonly known as hammer, anvil, and stirrup.

The smallest bones are the ear ossicles, three bones that are found in the middle ear. They are called the stapes ("stirrup"), incus ("anvil"), and malleus ("hammer").

The smallest bones are in your ear. The largest bone, the femur, is found in your thigh.

They are in the ear - hammer, anvil and stirrup - named because they are shaped like so (or that's what my biology teacher told me at school!).

The bones in your ear... not the cartilage

hammer, stapes, malleus in the ear; interestingly, there are actually joints between them and are subject to arthritic degeneration with time..."eh, what did you say?"
