There are three cuneiform ("wedge-shaped") bones in the human foot:
the first or medial cuneiform
the second or intermediate cuneiform, also known as the middle cuneiform
the third or lateral cuneiform
They are located between the navicular bone and the first, second and third metatarsal bones and are medial to the cuboid bone.[1]
