Dr. Mullis:
And then of course you have a pubis, ischium, and ilium on the other side, and another socket joint, and then, where those bones come together in the back at the sacrum, that makes up the entire pelvic ring. So the acetabulum really is a part of the pelvis, but is also a part of the hip joint.
