the SARTORIUS, (latin) is a muscle on the anterior thigh, that attaches upwards in the anterior iliac spine, and downwards, in the middle (internal) plateau of the tibia,
When a person crosses the leg above the opposite knee, is the part in which the old roman tailors (sartoria), used to place the garments they were sewing, fixing or altering.... (the medial part of the tigh, in the sitting position)
