Human spine. Artwork showing the bones and the position of the spine. The spine is a column of 33 cylindrical bones called vertebrae,which support the trunk and head and protect the spinal cord. Each vertebra has bony projections that provide attachment sites for the muscles and ligaments that hold the spine together. At the base of the spine are the sacrum (large triangular bone) and coccyx (small triangular bone) | |
