   • 1891, The Annals and Magazine of Natural History (page 201)

     […] this being the case the bone in question contains at any rate the centrale, and I see no reason why the carpale 2 should have quite disappeared.

   • 1973, Radomír ?ihák, Ontogenesis of the skeleton and intrinsic muscles of the human hand and foot (page 36)

     This indicates that the pisiform is really a secondary component which became the carpale during phylogenesis.
